In addition to acrylic painting, I enjoy painting on silk with silk dyes. Some of the art pieces that I have done on silk are completed as paintings which are shown in the silk painting section of this website. Another format that I like to use for my silk painting is to create beautiful scarves.
This is one of the silk scarves which I hand painted with an overall floral repeat pattern. It is laying on my work table in my studio. It has been removed from the stretcher bar frame that suspended it above the table when I painted it. After painting it, it had to be heat set for several hours in my steamer. I have really enjoyed wearing it.
