WEARABLE ART CONNECTION

I HAVE A WORKSHOP IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COMING UP
I will be giving a lecture and teaching teaching a workshop in Los Angeles area in May.
The lecture will be a slide show and examples of silk painting using photos and drawings as the basis for the design.  There will also be several quilts and wall art using the technique.


 This is an example of a silk painting done from an old photo of my great grand-parents.  I used sepia tones to give it the old photo look.  It does not have the appliqué added yet.
 This is from a simple drawing I had done with added fabrics and stitching,  Simple but fun to do.
Silk painting from a photograph with appliqué and stitching added.  The extra textures give it POP!
The workshop is being sponsored by  www.wearableartconnection.org
