Silk Painting Workshop

Here are the pictures from our wonderful visit to the silk painting workshop at the Traditional Arts Building in Nashville, IN.  We had a beautiful day with our teacher, Mary Pendergrass.




Here are two close-ups:
Denise invented a technique for painting two pieces at once. She layered the sheer silk (on the right) on top of the heavier silk, and painted both together.

This is Julie G.'s beautiful scarf.
And more fabric:
