Painting on Silk

As a watercolorist, I've been dabbing into water media for 21 years.  To retain transparency of my silk paintings, I mount them on acrylic boxes and display them in the window, taking advantage of the sun's power and exuberance!
 

Hand Dyed and Painted Wearable Arts

My interest in watercolor painting and love of fiber evolved from paper to a wide range of various silk fibers and cotton.   As a scientist, I am curious about how I can alter the dyes, using temperature, acid and base, and salt conditions to get the results seen in the scarves, jackets and tee shirts shown in the slideshow.  These pieces are available for sale at the upcoming Marin Arts Festival, June 15-16, at the Civic Center in San Rafael, CA.
