Thank you. I took a workshop 9 years ago but never practiced it enough. Now I want to start again, I find your tutorial to be extremely helpful. Amazing techniques.
Very nicely explained and helpful foe beginners. Voice over wou5 have been mire helpful, as initially concentration was more on reading captions than seeing painting,
You are an absolute life saver. I tried silk painting for my last cosplay and struggled so much with my gutta. Thank you so much for this in-depth tutorial 🙏
Do you know if all gutta brands should be mixed with water? Mine refused to come out of the squeeze bottle even though I had one with a much wider nozzle (the only one I had on hand at that time) and then kind of separated the lines every few centimeters 😩 The instructions didn't mention thinning it down so I didn't even consider that idea! It's a gutta that you wash out with water too, unfortunately the only brand available here at all. Thank you for the help 💝
@@CakeCrumb If it's a water based gutta, which it sounds like it is, you should be able to thin it with water! I'd recommend starting light and adding more until you get a nice smooth consistency. When it's too thick, it will come out in clumps instead of a continuous line. Don't worry if it seems like the water isn't mixing in, from my experience it might take a few minutes of consistent stirring but as long as it is a water based gutta, it will definitely mix in eventually!
lovely I don't have words to explain how minutely explain the every detail of the painting I myself is a professional artist but never done silk painting though I have got all the materials ready to start this video is a blessing in disguise😊 I have pebeo readymade transparent Gutta bottle which I feel it's a big thin consistency wise so I m little scared to start can we make it thick by any chance or apply as it is pl reply I have subscribed your channel I am from India Thanks
Thank you for this wonderful video! I learned so much, after my first project, which had some issues. Is steam ironing acceptable for those who may not have steamers?
I'm so glad it was helpful! I would advise against steam ironing - I think theoretically it's possible, but it would take such a long time, I'd be worried about fully setting the whole piece evenly and it's easy to accidentally singe the silk in an attempt to get it hot enough. The heat and pressure of the steam bath is really the most solid way. Instead, a more accessible steam method would be using a saucepan and a vegetable colander. Put a little water in the saucepan and put the colander in the pan, making sure the water level is lower than the bottom of the colander. Wrap the silk like I do in the video and then throw it in the colander. You can put it on the stovetop and let it steam for a few hours, no need to worry about a lid. Just make sure the water level is low enough that it never bubbles high enough the get the silk wet and you should be good! Just make sure to check the water level every 15 minutes or so in case you need to add water.
Because of the dyes I'm using, the setting must be done via steam to achieve high enough temperatures and pressure! This will bond the dye molecules to the silk molecules together, producing the most wash and color fast result.
If you have a large amount of fabric you want to do, could you do it in sections with a smaller frame or does the frame need to be larger than the design you're wanting to create?
Hi your silk painting video is soo good it helped me... And I have a doubt about gutta.. can you please clear me... That is my gutta is became a little watery.. and it's spreading on cloth what should I do ? Pls let me know...
If you are using the same gutta as me, then perhaps you have added too much water to the gutta. I use about 1:1 gutta and water, but sometimes I have to use less water to make the proper consistency.
Reactive dyes have a very different chemistry to acid dyes. Many reactive dyes are cold water dyes and don't require heat to set. However, they do require additives to make the dye solution basic, and they work best on cellulose fibers rather than silk.
EXCELLENT VIDEO
SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL

Awesome ma'am why steam do the silk we can presss the fabric

Is dis dyes called remesol dyes too.?
If I use the reactive dye powder, do I need to steam the fabric too?
