My Silk Painting

While attending Sport of Kings in 2011 and again in 2013 I took a silk banner painting class from Aldgudana Gunnarsdottir. My first attempt at silk painting in 2011 was ruined when a breeze caught the fabric while the gutta was still wet. The fabric folded and my design went 'SPLAT!' However, I didn't want to give up, so in 2013 I purchased silk paddle fans from [Dharma Trading Company]. These are already fixed to a frame so the breezes on site weren't a problem. The difference was Amazing and I am Hooked! As soon as I got home I ordered gutta and silk paints and produced 14 more designs. 12 of these were submitted to the An Tir Dirty Dozen Donation Derby (aka D4) at September Crown 2013.
