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.
