INTRODUCTION TO SILK PAINTING – DEBORAH YOUNGLAO

I’d like to invite you to an artistic encounter, where you’ll get a taste of the exciting art form of silk painting. No previous art experience of any kind is necessary! I supply all silk, dyes, resist, salt and line drawings for your use.

Silk painting has something for everyone - with flowing dyes and brilliant colors you’ll create a beautiful work of art even if you think you’re not artistic!  You’ll go home with a finished piece that you can wear as a scarf, hang on the wall or make into a cushion cover. 

What you’ll learn:

• all about materials
• stretching the silk
• wet-on-wet techniques
• blending, shading
• salt technique
• drawing a design with resist
• painting resisted design
• setting the dyes

 

Materials fee: $18
