New Jacquard Silk Neckerchiefs

Well, disappointing news...... I was hoping to receive my satin chiffon scarves in the 8"x54" size. I currently carry it in an 18"x72" size. Unfortunately, my supplier has told me that they would not receive these until the end of August. On that note, I have decided to switch back to the 8"x54" silk jacquard. All is well...... like the silk chiffon stripe, the jacquard stands out as well. I love working with it, because the fabric already has a design woven within..... Add my painted designs, and the scarf really pops!

I will be adding another design in a few!

INSPIRATIONS

I am revamping my Fall 2007 Line. I was searching my studio for some inspiration, and behold..... my eyes fell on on my Ikea lamp! It is a white glass background with simple leaves drawn on it. Hmmm... how can I expand on that? Taking my colour wheel, I decided on a theme incorporating purple and green. Bold, Vibrant.... and NOT SAFE! a perfect combination! Here it is...... and I love it. I think this will be a hit!
I also, decided to paint a larger version of two of my popular silk (smaller) scarves. I think they look wonderful - Red Maple Leaf and Teal Maple Leaf. On a larger scale, the colours are quite bold.

New Beginnings

Hi! I'm Dee Boswell, and I welcome you to my blog spot.

I am creating this blog to help me detail my journey, of fulfilling my dream of creating sucessful line of silk accessories through my art - Silk Hand Painting.

I have been painting for about 6 years now. This year - 2007, is my year for new beginnings. I'm trying my hand at being more organized (a difficult feat for many artisans), and I got married this year!

Also, I have always wanted to start a blog, so I can see where I have started and where I'm at currently. Not too sure what to write right now..... so ttys.
