Unique Qualities:

Our silk defies the norm. Unlike traditional Chinese silk, it will not wrinkle with wet painting techniques, eliminating the need for stretching on a frame or mounting on a board with tape. It’s a sized, non-bleeding fabric that ensures your artwork remains crisp and clear, though excessive moisture will penetrate through. We recommend placing a wool felt underneath while painting.

Versatility:

Adaptable to all water-based media, this silk is a favorite for artists using watercolor, acrylic ink, or liquid acrylic. The translucent nature of the silk allows artists to trace designs with or without a lightbox. Even the back side is paintable with gouache and opaque watercolors.

Special Thanks:

We extend our gratitude to Shay Wahl and Maribel Teklado for providing the beautiful painting samples showcased below.
