How to paint with invisible gutta lines? The Autumn Scarf explained!

Check out Leanne Holt - Lost Gutta tutorial on Silk Artist blog.

I just stumbled across a great blogpost with fantastic tips on silk painting. Step by step it tells you how to create a painting on a scarf without the white gutta lines. 

I used this technique last year, to create hand painted 'Autumn' silk scarf.

It was really time - consuming. You have to use delicate, light silk to ensure that the gutta will work when you apply it on the first layer of paint. If you use to heavy silk, the gutta will not work and there will be 'bleeding'.

Free world - wide shippign everyone!

I am back after very intense six months... there were weddings, there was A LOT of work and painting... oh very good time indeed!

I will add some of my new works here now, just to make you wanna visit my shop on ETSY with 75 silk scarfs!! Yesssss 75... when did it happened?

And here's the newest scarf 'Poppies' - hand painted silk scarf with red and pink poppies.

This 'Poppies' scarf was painted as a gift for my friend... she was going to a great music festival (classical music in Wieliczka city in Poland) so I am very honored that she had chosen this scarf as a part of her outfit. She did inspire me to paint poppies one more time. I am sooo grateful for her inspiration (and for the yummiest raspberries she brought from her garden).  

Black and White Feathers - silk scarf

This is my second hand - painted silk scarf, done in monochrome and inspired by Art - Nouveau style and feathers. I really hope you'll like it! I'm thinking of creating a series of this type of hand painted scarves, what do you think?

I didn't even realize how fun it would be to paint... I am an always have been a 'milion-color' artist, if you know what I mean ;) but lately I am drawn to this type of art.
