Delve into the art of silk painting with the Japanese serti technique.
Families will use a provided line drawing based on a nature theme or sketch their own. Silk is then stretched onto a frame and the design is drawn using a resist. Once dried, the resist forms a boundary, within which a thin, dye like textile paint is added. Each family or group will work together on one silk painting. Recommended for ages 8+.
The Kentucky Arts Council, the state arts agency, supports Pike County Public Library District with state tax dollars and federal funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.
Please note this process will take 3 hours to complete.
**Because each family/group will be working together on one silk painting, only one registrant per family/group is necessary.**
