Ships w/c November 16th

Take your art to the next level with silk paper, a luxurious painting surface for artists to create Chinese inspired art, chinoiserie wallpaper designs, botanical paintings and so much more! You will receive 4 sheets of paper backed silk, the exact material I use to create my Chinoiserie paintings and silk wallpapers. This is silk fabric that's been specially treated for painting, and backed with paper to create a perfectly smooth surface. Paint will not bleed and paint edges will be perfectly crisp, It's been a game changer for my art practise! Get your free silk paper care guide here. The silk paper is hand made in small batches and minor imperfections such as small marks or fibres under the surface are to be expected. Want to see silk paper in action?

Need to know: Each sheet measures approximately 23 x 35cm (9.05 x 13.7 inches) Smooth surface Paint glides on creating a luxurious finish Can build up layers and add fine details Can be dyed with a thin watered down coat of paint (one that does not move when wet, such as acrylic paint). Can be used with a variety of paint types but I mostly love gouache and watercolour. This surface can accept extremely watered down paint. Create stunning techniques, from washes and paint effects, to ultra fine detailed artwork. Plan your design in advance and transfer to the silk when you are happy with the composition. If you rub out pencil lines on this silk, the rubber marks may be visible in some lights. Do not over handle, grease from hands can cause the paint to resist the silk. Arrives to you rolled in a cardboard tube, please flatten by using a low heat iron, cover silk with paper to protect then leave to cool under heavy books.
