SILK PAINTING

COURSE OBJECTIVE:

This course is aimed at beginner and intermediate-level silk painters.  You will learn the basic techniques, and explore various methods & processes of painting on silk including batik techniques to develop them into Paintings and Silk Scarves.  We will be using steam-fixed dyes which become integrated with the fabric while still respecting the characteristic luminosity and texture of silk.  Line drawings will be provided by the instructor but if you know how to draw beautifully, she encourages you to bring your own images/line drawings.
