Silk Painting

If you've been reading my blog for awhile, you've probably noticed that I can't turn away from a pretty pattern. Silk scarves have these in droves, so I unknowingly have started collecting them.  While I was at Alt last January (can it really be two months ago!), I had the opportunity to take a Fabric Design course. What it really turned out to be was learning the technique of Silk Painting. This was brand new to me, so I was really excited to learn a new skill. Since then I've been playing around with it more and have learned from my mistakes. In the next few weeks, I'll share a little DIY project around silk painting. But before that I wanted to share my first experience with silk painting (mistakes and all) and the other talented artists that took the class at Alt too. 

In the end, everyone created amazing pieces. I especially love the feathers! 

 Stay tuned for a full DIY next week!
