I am Parkins Davis, 18 years old, and Owner/Dyer at Davis Dyes!
I am located in Henderson, NC which is about an hour north of Raleigh. I create some very colorful and unique Tie Dye clothes and art. My favorite place to visit in the Triangle is either the Art Museum because of the beautiful park or the Flea Market on the weekends because of its vast treasures.

I started creating about 2 years ago, and the shirts I made started
piling up...so I decided to start selling them. My most cherished
handmade item is actually a tie dye shirt made by a fellow dyer (I like
to trade with people) The thing about tie dye is that everyone does it
differently, and they all look unique!

I chose my medium because of the stunning results one can achieve
through some fairly simple techniques, I've found that Rayon is my
favorite to dye though. Old Hippies and they're classic tie dye
inspires me honestly, its an art that hasn't been around long, yet still
timeless. I've met many old dyers who all seem to be impressed with my
word despite my age. When I am not creating, I really enjoy playing
music with others (I play drums) and also enjoy traveling and seeing
concerts.

You can find me selling at the Raleigh Flea Market at the NC fairgrounds
on most weekends, and also in the Phish lot when they tour through the
region. Though I also do small music festivals in NC.
