This guide to silk painting contains ideas, designs and techniques that follows the "silk road" of discovery from fibre through to fabric, and takes readers, step-by-step, through the different techniques of this art. Colour illustrations detail the history of the silk trade in Asia and Europe, and the development of the modern silk-making process. There is also information and advice on material and equipment, and many ideas for gift and home-furnishing projects, as well as examples of wallhangings, pictures and designer clothing.
