Silk Painting Workshop with Aysha Yilmaz

Join us for a creative session with Aysha on silk painting!

In this workshop, motifs and designs from The Silk Road ( Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkey etc) will be used to produce a Silk Painting.

Aysha will demonstrate how to apply the design to the Silk fabric from a drawing, followed by techniques of filling in with Silk paints.

A briefing will be given by Aysha on how Silk is produced and its origins. She will also touch upon the origins of the motifs used.

Hosted by: Danny Middleton, Service Development Officer, Central Library.
