For the LOVE of Wearing HANDPAINTED ART

More samples of art-to-wear...

Sometimes we dye our fabrics and t-shirts before painting designs on them. We have used techniques such as marbling and tie-dye to create unique and one-of-a-kind wearables.



The sample to the left with the cat...the t-shirt was first marbled...pastel shades of green, coral red and blue. Then the design was created using batik techniques...melted wax. Sometimes we also paint the back of the t-shirt with a different design. This one has the cat's derriere.








The sample on the right was first tie-dyed pink with streaks of blue and green. Then the snowflake and sun designs were stamped on using a liquid which takes away the base dye.
