Silk Painting takes me in many directions, much like watercolor.  I use the Serti technique, which literally means “fence” in French.  I build a fence using a wax resist - to control the natural course of the paint over and through the silk, and to create the outline and detail in the painting.  From there, it is much like watercolor, where I control the paint tightly for detail or allow it to flow and layer to create beautiful washes.  It is a process I enjoy, and like most of my creations - the vision of the painting comes to me in a medium that will best bring the dream forward.  That process I can’t explain …Dreams
