RE: A Very Different Type Of Textile Art

You have no idea how much I agree with what you say at the end, how many people call themselves photographers and... take photographs that I prefer not to look at. I don't want to be called a photographer either, even though they say I take good photos. Perhaps my many years of drawing and painting help me...
But what you've brought us today is extraordinary, and I want the same scarf! It's beautiful. I think I'd frame it to have it at home. I can't even imagine the price. Painting on silk can't be easy; silk moves around a lot. Do you know what was used to paint it?
The colors are wonderful. I like them all. It's so hard to choose just one! I'll take this one...

I'm glad it's not just me noticing this.
I don't know what paint the lady is using as I didn't go to the opening and these are details only the artist know, but it must be something very soft as you don't see thick layers. And you're right, silk is soft, it's not a steady surface like canvas. This makes these paintings more valuable.
You've brought home a real marvel. It would be a luxury and something beautiful to have one in the living room and see it every day!
