Thanks for stopping in.  

Painting on silk is an ancient, intriguing artistic medium.

Silk was once the currency of the East--traded for other exotic goods, such as spices and tea. The Japanese, Chinese and Vietnamese all have strong traditions of creative artistic expression in silk going back thousands of years.  

Silk can transmit its beauty in so many ways. It is equally luscious and vibrant as a painting, a hanging, a layered collage or a gorgeous wrap.  

For those who love the natural ebb and flow of fabric, I invite you to see what I call silk floaters, which add color, dreaminess and a touch of a surprise to any environment, harmonizing especially well in spaces with high ceilings. To those who view the flow of energy in their homes, offices or public spaces as critical for balance and peace, I have created a beautiful--and organic--way to address these needs in my Feng Shui silk panels.
