For those who have completed Basic Silk Dye Painting techniques (about 2 or 3 quarters or with instructor's approval), the first project will be a provided scarf to learn design placement and how to work with pre-hemmed scarves. Students can then choose to continue working with scarves or create paintings with silk yardage that they purchase on their own. Dyes, resist, frames will be provided for use.

A techniques class, students will paint silk "worksheets" with acid dyes practicing many techniques. Acid dyes give silk fabric the most brilliant colors, and with the use of resist, we can create designs of our own choosing. Instructor will steam set your work for permanency. No drawing skills necessary.
