Fabric painting to try for beginners...

          We all are simple artists. All of us would have tried drawing and painting once in our life. So when we intend to do fabric painting for the first time, it's always like choose the simplest design. 

          Today I have brought a simple design in a kurti material. As to begin with the design is drawn on to the fabric where it is required. You can use pencil to draw in a light coloured fabric or tailoring chalk for dark coloured fabric. The design may be hand drawn or a stencil can be used.

         Now along the outline painting can be done carefully. A thin brush(00) can be used for easy control of painting. Also it doesn't waste colour. It's important to have patience till the end for good results.

         Here I have taken a maroon coloured fabric and done simple oval design along the neck, on the lower border and sleeves. The design has been drawn using chalk and finished with yellow and green colours.

    

The sunflowers 🌻!!

             I always love white and off-white shades of dresses. When you design on these shades it's interesting and also a bit challenging. 

             In light coloured fabrics, you can choose any contrast colour to work on. But at the same time it's very important that the design is done in a different pattern to make it attractive.

             Here I am with an off-white green bordered saree with sunflower design motifs , that matches with the shades of the saree. 

              The pallu is finished with big sunflower design and the whole saree filled with small sunflower motifs. 

               SIMPLE AND BEAUTIFUL 💖!!

Simplest scenery in off-white

         There's nothing to explain about this off-white silk saree. It's one type of simple silk saree with golden borders and pallu.

         I have hand painted a scenery in orange and black shades and hope it has come well. 

         The blouse is same running material as the saree, but it would be awesome with the orange and black mixed shade designer material.

A search in my wardrobe - part I 😄

          I have done fabric painting in many of my dresses and also of my family members. This includes kurtis and sarees mostly. 

          This has given me more confidence in working on materials for sale as per demand. 

          Here are some of my kurtis I have hand painted and designed for myself.

• Light pink kurti with simple blue floral design :

• Blue coloured handloom cotton kurti with applique work and hand painted design :

Hand painted Pink flowers !! Always beautiful..

            A saree in off-white, green, pink and red?? Yes, that's what I have brought today.

            So here's this beautiful silk saree in off-white shade, with light green, light pink and golden shaded borders. 

            I have chosen this beautiful light pink flower design with long stalk and simple leaves in dark green. Also to make a difference, the design has been done in the middle portion of the saree throughout the length.

             Each of the pink flower has been finished using five shades. The outer border maroon, inner to that pink then the lighter salmon pink. The salmon pink colour is made still lighter using flesh colour. The centre is maroon colour and outer to that it's yellow.       Then the stalk of the flower and the leaves are given dark green shaded with light green colours.  

        So hand painted flower design was very tedious work but I am happy to see the finished design in the saree.     

         The pallu of the saree is entirely different and in dark red colour. The blouse is also in the same shade but it does match well.

Design on my own wear!!

              Today I am presenting before you is my own saree. It's an orange coloured silk saree with dark green border mixed with golden shade. 

               The pallu is finished with green lines over the orange shade and the blouse is same as the pallu. 

                So the saree is completely plain that makes me happy to work upon.

                 Here I have chosen to do a hand painted full Kathakali motif .The design motifs are painted with equal spacing on both the upper and lower borders of the saree. Also it is done in dark green and flesh shades that matches well with the saree borders.

       Really it feels so good to wear something designed by myself.

   

The Golden maroon wonder !!!

            Today I've brought before you, a silk saree with wide maroon borders. The saree is a shade of peach in colour. On both sides of the maroon border there is also golden shaded borders, and the same in pallu too. 

              The pallu of the saree is very much plain and this makes me more happy. 

               So here I have done a big floral design in the same maroon colour that fills the pallu entirely. Moreover the design is more asymmetrical and is finished with golden shading outline.

Something different to try!!

            Here is a two piece Kerala saree (or the set mund ) and I have tried a deer design for the first time. 

            The saree is having a maroon border. So I have shaded the deer with maroon outline and inner ochre yellow colour. There's also this spiral design with maroon, orange and yellow combination. Hope it has come well.
