Handpainted silk cushion cover
Monday, May 12, 2008
It's begun. My painting genie has been reignited and has been painting this past weekend and I'm soooooo happy :-)
Don't forget to click on the photos to zoom in!
I have painted silk charmeuse for a cushion cover in turquoise and purple, as shown below:
Below you can see a close-up of one side of the cushion cover:
And here you can see a close-up of the other side of the cushion cover:
The cushion covers will be available to buy on my website in a range of vibrant colours.
I also handpainted two pieces of silk twill - the photo below shows the 36"/90cm full width, and the piece is actually 45" long.
The photo below shows a second piece of silk twill - also 36"/90cm full width, and 45" long.
This next piece below is a combo of the same fibre-reactive dyes in turquoise, lime green, purple and hot pink. The crinkle cotton fabric is 40" wide and 90" long.
Fabric: silk charmeuse, silk twill, crinkle cotton
Dyes: Drimarene K fiber-reactive
Outlines: Cold wax
I am very pleased with these handpainted textiles I've just created in my new Studio :-)
Woohoo!

I love the look of the pillow covers!!
I had in mind some pillows done in lime, hot pink and white - similar to the middle one(s) above.
