I love to experiment with surface design, using all kinds of processes to see what they do and how things will work out. Heres a few of these...

painted cotton using diluted acrylics with a thermal fax silkscreen

simple sunprint on silk noil using buttons as a resist

painted masa paper highlighted with inked brayer

dyed antique kimono silk with 2 different thermal silkscreens

painted cotton with created foam stamps, and medium with small squares of gold stirred in
I started taking pictures of just the fabrics because I enjoyed how they looked. Just for fun. Nice.
Look for my fabric painting demo at the Meredith NH League of NH Crafts Sat - 6/19, 1100-200.

Yep, nice and fun! I fall in love with wonderful, rich fabric designs!
Wen, these are great. I love the first one in particular.
I ache to achieve these effects while still keeping the same hand as the original fabric... that's my goal for the future, anyway. :D
Lovely, inspiring stuff! Thanks for sharing - Lisa
Hi Wen, I love getting a reminder to visit your blog. You always have such great stuff to read and see. The brayered piece reminds me of Motherwell.
Keep it up!~ Deb
