At first I make sketch on simple paper. Then remove that sketch to other paper to left only perfect lines. For that I use special paper with ink.
Then take perfect sketch under silk, which is in frames. Silk must be very tight before I start to work with it. With pencil I take sketch on silk.
Then one of the hardest work to do. With special contour for silk I have to cover all pencil lines. Important that all black contour has to be in touch with each other line. If any area is missed, then colors split from that area to other and work will be worth nothing.
When everything is done, checked few times for extra mistakes, which can be bad for my artwork. Then let it dry. It must be all perfectly dry, because silk colors have water and that can mix with black contour and make dark marks in work (I trash some works which has those marks, then I don't know that 3 hours on fireplace is not enough). And when it dry I dye colors on it. If silk is tight enough them color split very well. Just take one drop of colors and it split until touch edge of contour. In my latest works I start mix few colors in one area. So put yellow on center line and then green on edges, when it all mixed it looks just like this.
After some work with silk flowers I found my own way to work. At first I color all leaves. That give some relaxing color for me to work next.
Then color bloom. That is the most important place in my art works. I take all my attention on it. As for this I put yellow base color and while that is still wet I add with smaller brush (1 number) orange lines, some light purple and green to the edge and throat. I have to mix them very fast and well. Colors dry fast and if I add orange on dry location that orange let be just a line and not very nice line.
Then work with background. If I by accident split one color under the edge of right place for that color, then I can fix with darker background color. But in latest works I don't need that. I just do that well enough.
Dark background give the view that this is in real. Green leaves goes out of silk and bloom just look like cover those leaves and look amazing.
As silk colors dry fast so in few hours I can be sure that my art work is done. This is how it looks while it is till on frames. I found my way to add sign with colors of silk, not contour. Then it looks not so eye catching part in the work.
Then I use special kit to remove silk tighter's. And when all those was removed, I take silk out of frame and this is done. Then I use sissors to remove edge which not fill in frame. Take a glass frame and frame it.
And this is how it looks when it goes on frames. This is not A4 size, just a little bigger (22,5 x 33 cm).
