Minimal Silk Paintings

Life has been a little bit hectic lately. And as a result I am craving muted colors, and lots of negative space. This is where my new silk pieces come in. (I will be putting this series of silk and linen pieces online when I launch my new store in a few weeks). 





These are the kinds of pieces that I want to hang in my own home, like today. I love the tactile quality of them, even the transparency of the fabric, and the slight bunching on the sides, to highlight the luminous quality that the threads have. There is a touch of gold paint, and smudges and stains and a few deliberate and graphic pencil marks. I would love to see these sold as a pair and live together in a chic home surrounded by calm and love.
