Silk Painting
VIBEKE BORN

The perfect introduction to this fascinating hobby. Learn how easy it is to achieve magical effects as you watch  the paint flow onto the silk. This book is filled with ideas and inspiration for beginners and the more experienced.
   Clear step-by-step instructions explain the techniques. All the projects are illustrated with tracing templates, and the finished silk paintings are shown in colour.
   The motifs are easily drawn freehand, and the great  thing about silk painting is that you don't need to be a brilliant artist to achieve outstanding results. it is the paints themselves and their effect on the silk which make the finished projects so stunning.
