What you'll do

In this engaging workshop, you’ll delve into a beginner silk scarf painting workshop with templates. Through this activity, you’ll discover how to bring vibrant silk pieces to life without the need for intricate drawing skills.

 

Don’t worry if you’re new to silk painting – this experience is designed to be clear, structured, and achievable.

 

Learn five essential silk colouring techniques

 

Discover how colours flow, blend, and settle on a larger silk surface

 

Enjoy a 45 minute guided demonstration before embarking on your own creative journey

 

Work at your own pace with support available as needed

 

You’ll get to experiment with a variety of pre-prepared silk templates, including scarves and cushion covers, choosing from different sizes on the day. All materials are provided, making it hassle-free for beginners.

 

By the end of the workshop, you’ll not only have a newfound understanding of silk painting techniques but also a beautiful and functional silk item to keep.

 

Please Note:

 

We use professional steam-fixed silk dyes in this workshop — the same type of dyes used in traditional silk painting practice for rich, lasting colour.

After the workshop, your scarf will remain in the studio for professional steam fixing and finishing.

Finished scarves can be collected approximately one week later, or posted within the UK for an additional £5 postage fee.

What you'll get

  • A choice of silk scarf template (constellations, animals, florals, landscapes)
  • Step-by-step guidance, instruction on how to fix the dyes and care for your finished silk scarf
  • All materials provided.

Curated silk scarf templates, artist-designed in-studio to ensure a flawless experience for beginners.
