Hand Painted Silks


Hand Painted Silk Ties on Display at Hertfordshire Open Studios.

Silk paint is a wonderful medium to work with - the delicacy of the silk, the flow of the paint, and the vibrancy of the resultant colours is just fab. The result is a unique piece of wearable art.

Warning: These ties are not for the timid but for those that love originality and to make a statement!



Hand Painted Silk Scarves on Display at Hertfordshire Open Studios

All individually hand painted - no two exactly alike - making each one an individual work of wearable art.

If you would like to have a go yourself I will soon have starter kits, silks and paints available for sale. I am doing a big revamp on these sections of my internet shops and hope to complete by the spring.



Hand Painted Silk Cushion - Original SOLD

This was painted using a watercolour and salting technique to give these beautiful stylised poppies.



Hand Dyed Devoree Velvet Shawl - Limited Edition

I used chemical burn out of the velvet to create the shear ripple patterns. The shawl was then overdyed using blues and warm pinky reds to create this luscious luxury shawl.

These are currently available from Shanti Gallery, High Street, Kings Langley, Herts.
