Silk Painting Workshop: Floral Design

Join this relaxing and creative painting workshop to learn how to paint on silk, an ancient medium originating in Eastern Asia. All levels of experience are welcome as we will begin with lessons on technique and color mixing as everyone learns how to express the beauty of flowers.

The process of painting on silk is similar to the act of watercolor painting in how it reacts to the surface. Guidance will be given on how to fix your finished works and how to put them on display.

All levels welcome, including absolute beginners.

And as an extra perk, the workshop will take place when the "Arts in Bloom" gallery will be filled with floral arrangements designed by member of the Hopkinton Garden Club.

Instructor: Lidia Mikhaylova

Materials: All materials included in tuition.
