Do you want to explore your creative side? Do you want to experiment with colors without fear of making a mistake? Come join me in this easy, magical, and relaxing adventure into the world of freedom and creativity, after which you will get a masterpiece created by your own hands.
We aren’t going to learn how to paint or try complex techniques but observe how the paint lives and reacts on the fabric, directing it wherever our imagination wants the paint to go. During this master class, you will tap into your creativity and grow your unique flower, a symbol of feminine beauty and divine blessing. The finished project will be approximately 14" x 14".
We will work in a relaxed small group for 2.5–3 hours. All materials are provided, and no previous experience is needed.
The maximum number of participants is 15 people.
Looking forward to painting on silk with you!
Experience art. Experience creativity. Experience happiness.

FAQ

What's beautiful about silk painting?
The batik technique is unique. It’s the process of turning a white canvas into a fairy tale, where harmony reigns, the music of lines and colors in endless variations of magic and wonder. The texture of silk, which flows, fascinates and inspires, makes the colors shine and they glow.
What is the highlight of painting on silk?
Painting on silk is a creative process. At the end of the workshop each one of you will create your own unique flower. And it will be absolutely your personal artwork. Even if you choose the same composition, each one of you will paint completely different artworks because each paint spreads differently, your hands moving are different, so your art works will be different.
I don't know how to paint at all. Does it make sense for me to come to this workshop? Will I be able to do it?
This workshop will be interesting and useful for everyone - who has experience in painting and who thinks he does not know how to paint. At the beginning of the workshop, I ask all students to say good bye to their inner critic, let him go out from the class! Because the main purpose of this workshop is to express yourself and create a flower based only on your own expression. We will go together to the interesting, amazing journey where there are no mistakes. Where there is only creativity and freedom of your expression - together we will play the beautiful melody to the color. We will paint on silk using free watercolor technic and only a few simple rules I will tell you about.

Will you help me if I make mistakes in the painting process?
The Nature has nothing perfect. Therefore, we can let us do whatever we want. Any disadvantages by your opinion will become a highlight of your flower. And of course, I will always be there to help you on your creative journey.
How can I use my artwork after the workshop?
After the easy technique of fixing paints on silk, which I'll tell you about in the workshop, you can use your artwork as you like. This small piece of painted fabric can be used as an interior pillow, a print on a sweater or a bag, amazing wall art décor, scarves.
