"I am fascinated with the brilliant colors and the
freedom of working with dyes on silk.

The intermingling of colors allow for startling effects."

 Working in my studio at home, first I stretch silk like canvas.
 I draw on the silk with a wax resist called Gutta.
Painting with a brush I use dyes, salt and watercolor techniques.
Steaming to set the color completes this part of the process.
I re-stretch my silk painting adding details with fabric paints,
acrylics, inks and sometimes gold leaf.

Silk paintings will last as long as more traditional mediums.
