Silk Painting
Silk painting refers to paintings on silk. They are a traditional way of painting in Asia. Methods vary, but using traditional supplies of 100% silk fabric, stretched in a frame, and applying textile paints or dyes are the beginnings of an amazing creative process in making textile art and the process. Silk painting is the application of paints or dyes directly onto silk fabric using an exciting array of watercolour techniques. The silk surface is often prepared by stretching and dying silk with a background colour.
