Silk Painting Inspired by Van Gogh
About Mary
Picture
Further Detail
You  will be shown how to condition the silk so that the fabulous fluid dyes that are associated with silk can be harnessed to replicate a particular style of interpretation be it landscape or his famous flower studies and who doesn’t like a sun flower or a poppy field?

Skills/Techniques Covered
Basic silk painting skills together with some controlling mechanisms with anti-diffuser and thickener will be shown to effect a different style of silk painting rather than the norm.  Colour blending and basic colour theory will be practiced to achieve the individual result each participant wishes.
