SILK PAINTING WORKSHOP
Join us for an exciting Silk Painting Workshop with Aysha Yilmaz
In this workshop, motifs and designs from The Silk Road ( Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkey etc) will be used to produce a Silk Painting. A briefing will be given by Aysha on how Silk is produced and its origins. Also, she will touch upon the origins of the motifs used.
Aysha will demonstrate how to apply the design to the Silk fabric from a drawing, followed by techniques of filling in with Silk paints.

- Silk fabric piece at least A4 size, or a plain white Silk scarf (can buy online)
