SILK PAINTING
I have been painting my very unique mandalas on silk for several years now. My first silk mandala emerged in 1999 and was quite a geometrical affair of very large proportions. Over the years I have honed my skills and style and today I have a huge collections of satin silk mandalas, both framed and unframed, several of which have found their homes in places as far afield as Canada and USA. I paint professionally now and have also founded my first company, Silk & Art Ltd., which promotes boxed and printed versions of my originals, as well as beautiful greetings cards.
SILK PAINTING TECHNIQUES AND MATERIALS
I’m starting a forum now where I’ll be posting information on different types of silk as well as the various materials you might need when starting out on silk painting. The selection out there is huge and you can get quite lost when looking to make your first choices for a new hobby. My aim is to give you some help there and to be available to answer any questions you might have. You’ll also find plenty of information on the various techniques involved in silk painting. So feel free to post your questions at the end of any post.
You will find more information about my individual products in the Silk & Art category, as well as silk painting workshops, in the various articles below in the Silk Painting category. A very recent addition is Silk Painting for Kids. I very much hope you will interact with me and leave comments on what you see here to enable me to provide more events and products that you need.
Take care and I hope to see you at one of my workshops soon.
