HOW TO DO SILK PAINTING

HI ALL,
IN THIS POST I AM GOING TO TELL HOW TO DO A SILK PAINTING.ITS SIMPLE BUT GIVES A ELEGANT LOOK.

MATERIALS:

• SILK OR SATIN CLOTH
• SILK COLOURS
• GUTTA
• EMBROIDERY FRAME
• SYNTHETIC BRUSH NO:2

METHOD:

• TAKE THE REQUIRED DESIGN AND TRANSFER IT TO THE CLOTH WITH YELLOW CARBON
• DRAW THE OUTLINE OF THE DESIGN WITH GUTTA(HAVE TO USE GUTTA JUST LIKE GLASS LINER).LET IT DRY.
  
• GUTTA WILL BE IN HALF WHITE COLOUR WHILE APPLYING,ONCE IT DRIES IT WILL BECOME TRANSPARENT.
• TAKE A DROP OF COLOUR IN THE BRUSH AND DROP IT,SINCE THE COLOUR IS VERY WATERY IT WILL SPREAD BY ITSELF.
• YOU SHOULD DROP THE COLOUR IN THE CENTER,SO THAT IT WILL SPREAD ITSELF TO THE CORNER.DON'T PAINT IT IN THE CORNERS OTHERWISE IT MAY COME OT.
• LET IT DRY FOR ONE DAY AND THEN WASH THE CLOTH IN THE RUNNING WATER TO REMOVE THE GUTTA FROM CLOTH.
• IRON IT ON THE REVERSE SIDE.

NOTE:

• WHILE DOING THE OUTLINE,THE TIP OF THE NOZZLE SHOULD TOUCH THE CLOTH.IF THERE IS ANY GAP BTW THE CLOTH N GUTTA OR ANY BREAKS IN UR LINING THE COLOUR WILL EASILY COMES OUT
