==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 [[http://www.dharmatrading.com/ 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.

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.
