Sensational Silks, Dawn Gerardot

Wednesdays 1:00-3:30
Experience silk painting and I promise you that IT IS addictive. Texturing, negative work, and depth will be created by the layering of colors. If you do not draw well, not to worry, you can copy your own photos or copy one of my patterns. Your only limitation will be your lack of enthusiasm. Just dig in & enjoy! Week one will be developing the design and starting the resist process. Week two begins the painting process. In week three & four, we complete painting, heat set, wash and start the detail work. Week five, we complete detail and look at prep & options for framing
