I started Painting on silk a few years ago. A friend of mine was doing an art show here in my home town, and she asked me if I wanted to learn a new Art, I said of course. She said all I need is a place to do it. I told here to come on over we'll pull the cars out of the Garage. and we painted on silk for hours, and hours, for two day's, That's how I got started. If I have questions I just Call Dharma.

I use Procion liquid H series, they have the most vivid colors. I also use Jacquard Waterbased Resist, with the Gutta Applicators with metal tips and 2oz. squeeze bottles for chemwater. I wash all my silks in Synthrapol before painting. I also use Urea, Ludigal. I use Sodium Alginate to thicken the dyes as well. and I order all my silks from Dharma as well. Thank you Dharma!
