Clothes That Are Paintings
|
Fabric painting must one of my favorite techniques. Just like if you’re painting on a canvas, you have total freedom to apply as many colors as you wish and change the design as you go. And there’s so many materials and effects to play with: resists, dyes, inks, spray bottles, salt.. Not to mention that you can apply it to pretty much everything: scarves, summer dresses and tops, pillow cases, bags… We have a Silk Painting class starting in May at TAC Brooklyn, which will be a great opportunity for you to get started in experimenting with this amazing and versatile technique. SILK PAINTING, TAC Brooklyn Get Inspired!!
