You are the first doing a such beautiful work ! I think in 1980 coming from France I was the first to introduce painting on silk ! It was in my studio in handhorf ( south Australia ) it was a good experience ,!
i just subscribed, i love your work, i just retired and my hobby is paint with alcohol inks, but by seeing your work i might try this new adventure. many many many thanks
So beautiful! I'm wondering why you don't paint over the white lines until after mounting the painting? Your website is no longer active. Sorry to see that.
WOW! This is a project at a MASSIVE scale! I had no idea tie dying could be taken to THIS LEVEL! I was thinking SCARFS, when this appeared on my UA-cam. GREAT idea on the hot wax! I assume that is so the colors don't bleed into anything else into your design? As a cosmetologist, have you considered a hot brow wax from the salons for your hot waxing? What a phenomenal art piece!
Hi Anne, Love your work, thank you for taking the time to do it .. the video is very informational and straight forward .. which makes it easy to understand. Thank you from India :)
Wow Anne, thank you so much for explaining your process! About to check out your website :)) I can't wait to try this. Your work is beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration.
Anne, a very informative and interesting video. Makes me want to expand from my ink and paper paintings. I always wondered how you got rid of the white lines you had in your earlier paintings, such as the wonderful Silver Creek painting I cherish in my living room.
There’s a product l started using in my silk painting, a decade or so ago, called, “Batik-E-Z”, which is similar to the fermented rice resist used in Japan, but doesn’t have that wonderful earthy aroma…it has no smell, at all, and rinses out faster! You can add either acid dye or Dharma Silk Paints to it (with a little citric acid for the plain dye), and add color to your linework!
Love your big studio, and artwork on the walls. You inspire me to consider larger pieces. I mostly dye scarves to sell. You might like my video on using colored water based resists.
Your Tutorial was great.... "Beautiful" ... NOTE: the background music was interfering with your voice, and in some places I could not hear you at all... so I just muted it the 2nd time... and enjoyed the video... ;)
Hi Anne, Merry Christmas! I was so enthralled with this video, you do absolutely beautiful work. One question, what is the name, and or, to the music you were listening too?
Hi Anna, this is a great video, I like the way you are not using those expensive professional looking steamer for your painting, (because I just started silk painting and fall in love with the fabric but can not afford those equipment) but after i see you can make your beautiful painting with a self-build steamer, that's encourage me a lot ^^ I want to ask if you steam the silk again after you outline the white part or not? and what is the silk you are using? the thickest silk I can get from on line is habaotai 8. thank you very much! mandy
Hi Anne great tutorial. And i really like the fact that you frame your own paintings. I have several hand painted batik silk fabrics and would like to know the materials you've used to frame your painting. From this clip I heard your saying fiber fill. Did I get that right?
On a large, clean table, put your piece face down. On top of that place a piece of lightweight fiberfill. On top of that, place your frame (made to the correct size, with foam core stapled to face) and staple painting to back of frame. I sewed a strip of cotton to painting edges so that I wasn’t stapling into the silk. Start stapling in the middle of each edge and work out to the corners.
love your video. I am doing batik. have you tried soy wax instead of beeswax? I like the soy wax easier to remove and the bees will not be bothered by it. great job. I am going to try doing this because I love the subtle colors of silk paintings.
I really loved your work.. wow.. I want to ask you, is this the same silk that can be used in garments? and if yes, is this technique useful in this case?
Hi Anne, I have really enjoyed watching 5his. Can you tell me, please, do you have to reset am your piece after adding colour to the lines where the wax has been removed. Many thanks
Do you pre-soak the fabric in any kind of mordant? I wondered how you would get the wax out without oil staining of the fabric during the steam process. I wouldn't have thought that even dry cleaning would do it, but there you go. Have you experimented with cold process dyes like procion and soy wax (which can be washed out in warm tap water and doesn't leave a greasy shadow)? I've done batik type methods this way.
Thank you for being generous with your technique, very clear and concise, I noted a glossy cast to some of your finished pieces; do you use a sealer? If so, what do you use?
I love your works. Simply beautiful Question, if you tack the piece to the sawhorse do you not have to worry about there being holes in the fabric or is this a piece that's meant as an art installation, not for wear?
Hi Anne very informative video. Thank you so for sharing. I have a question if I wanted to use gutta what brand I should use for steaming and also which jacquard colours go with gutta. Also if the streaming kettle is available in India. At the moment I am using setasilk colors and pabeo gutta
Thank so much May I ask you what brush do you use It is from Japan but can you be more specific It is for paint silk?Wy you have to send for the dry cleaning to take of the wax bee? Can you take of the wax at home?
Hi Maria, I have extra brushes for sale. I cannot read the writing on them as it is in Japanese, but they are very special. They do not fall apart in hot wax. The wax needs to be removed at the dry cleaners because you cannot get it out doing it yourself at home.
Hi, Ms. Anderson! Thank you for sharing your beautiful works and your interesting procedure with us all! I am also a silk painter and I was using cold wax and Magic Sizing on my silks but no one can find the cold wax anymore therefore I'm going to try out soy wax. I watched a video showing how to use the soy wax and the girl put color in it. After I saw your video and heard you say that you feel like the white lines make the painting look flat, I was wondering, have you ever tried to color the bees wax? Have you ever thought about using a different way, a different technique? I made a few suggestions to a lady who sounded like she was in a similar situation to me. These posts were made on here, your video. I hope you do not feel that I overstepped a line of intrusion. Thank you, again.
No overstepping, don't worry. I cannot color the bees wax....I would have about 50 hot electric frying pans going at the same time. I used to use colored gutta but you just cannot get vibrant rich colors on very lightweight silk.
Well. Now that was something. Several of the painting on the walls are spectacular!
Fascinating! Your work is absolutely beautiful, Anne. Thank you for the demo.
Very nice, Anne. You are a generous artist to share so much information. Much appreciated!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge so freely. I’m just starting out and I’m greatly inspired after watching this.
Did you find the material? I'm struggling to find it
how do you steam it at home without the large tubes
You are the first doing a such beautiful work ! I think in 1980 coming from France I was the first to introduce painting on silk !
It was in my studio in handhorf ( south Australia ) it was a good experience ,!
I enjoyed watching your video Ms Anderson and learned a new way of painting my art
You have a beautiful, patient understanding, just about like a relationship with the silk. Makes me want to learn, thank you for showing us.....
Thank you so much for sharing your process Anne! Wonderful tutorial and your work is lovely!

I would totally expect the newspaper to stain the silk, but apparently it doesn't! Amazing :)
Thank you so much for sharing!!! You have a my dream work shop! I love your kitchen!!
Ha Ha! I love my studio and my kitchen, too!
WOW! This is a project at a MASSIVE scale! I had no idea tie dying could be taken to THIS LEVEL! I was thinking SCARFS, when this appeared on my UA-cam. GREAT idea on the hot wax!

Soooo Beautiful!! You are inspirational 🌺
Beautiful and complex process! The beeswax application reminds me of Pysanka; Ukrainian Easter egg art
What a wonderful video, thanks for sharing!
Incredible work Anne!
truly beautiful...thank you for sharing
This was wildly informative. Thank you!
Beautiful !!!
Do you use ordinary fabric paint to paint out the white lines? Beautiful work. I love the colours.
did you find the answer for this?
Good job! Keep it up!😍😍😍
Beautiful! I really like your style!
they are beautiful, thank you for sharing your technique :)
Hi Anne,
Merry Christmas!

OMG....BEAUTIFUL.
Very beautiful ❤️ what kind of colors do you use? What do you think of natural colors for silk?
Amazing work, ma'am can u please tell me is it necessary to steam
It makes the dies permanent. Without steam, they will not be permanent.
SPECTACULAR! You make it look easy...;-))
Hi Anne, Thanks for sharing so much info! Are you using acrylic at the end to fill the white lines?
Thank-you for sharing.... It's useful even for beginners
Well done Anne! Beautiful!
Nice video, but it would be helpful if you showed a picture of the work when it came back from dry cleaner, and a picture of completed work.
I love this!!
It is so beautiful! Fantastic paintings. I love the black bird.
What an amazing and interesting skill you have.Your silks are absolutely BEAUTYFUL
Thank you for sharing! fantastic and beautiful work. I have a question. What is the paint you use at the end to fill in the lines?
Acrylic.
love your video. I am doing batik. have you tried soy wax instead of beeswax? I like the soy wax easier to remove and the bees will not be bothered by it. great job. I am going to try doing this because I love the subtle colors of silk paintings.
I really loved your work.. wow.. I want to ask you, is this the same silk that can be used in garments? and if yes, is this technique useful in this case?
Yes, this is the same silk that can be sewn into garments. You can use it for garments if you like!
Beautiful! What paint did you go over the wax lines with?
Thanks for sharing that. Your work is great. Does the newspaper ink ever deposit any oil /print marks on the material?
No, the newsprint does not transfer
nope
Absolutely Beautiful 💥
Hi Anne, I have really enjoyed watching 5his. Can you tell me, please, do you have to reset am your piece after adding colour to the lines where the wax has been removed. Many thanks
No. Acrylic paint does not need to be set.
Do you pre-soak the fabric in any kind of mordant? I wondered how you would get the wax out without oil staining of the fabric during the steam process. I wouldn't have thought that even dry cleaning would do it, but there you go. Have you experimented with cold process dyes like procion and soy wax (which can be washed out in warm tap water and doesn't leave a greasy shadow)? I've done batik type methods this way.
This is amazing! Apart from wax for the resist, what else can I use? Something called a 'gutta' or 'gutter' I'm not quite sure...
Gutta is a water soluble resist. It only works on very lightweight silks.
There are waterbased resist, but gutta is rubber & has to be removed by solvent.
Thank you for being generous with your technique, very clear and concise, I noted a glossy cast to some of your finished pieces; do you use a sealer? If so, what do you use?
The slightly glossy finish is due to the nature of the silk charmeuse.
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Please could you tell me the name of the dyes you used and from were you got them your work is outstanding beautiful
Hi Anne, TY for the tutorial. Do you use acrylic paint to fill in the white lines?
I love your works. Simply beautiful Question, if you tack the piece to the sawhorse do you not have to worry about there being holes in the fabric or is this a piece that's meant as an art installation, not for wear?
Music is terrible, too loud and very distracting. Your craftsmanship is great
Very interesting. Thankyou.
V. V Beautiful.. Can you please tell the medium of colors you used.. and the wax..
Hi Anne, I really enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing. Where did you buy the ink? What’s the name of it? Thank you
Hi Anne very informative video. Thank you so for sharing. I have a question if I wanted to use gutta what brand I should use for steaming and also which jacquard colours go with gutta. Also if the streaming kettle is available in India. At the moment I am using setasilk colors and pabeo gutta
Thank you.
amazing worked you sell some of your work?
Thank so much May I ask you what brush do you use It is from Japan but can you be more specific It is for paint silk?Wy you have to send for the dry cleaning to take of the wax bee? Can you take of the wax at home?
