Susan Douglass Moody
 
Acrylic Painting
on Silk
 

I studied fine arts in Denver, Colorado at Metro State College and the Art Institute of Denver.
 
My art has been exhibited in Central and South Texas and in Colorado.
For the past several years I have been painting with silk paints on silk and other fabrics.  Each piece is washed and stretched on a frame.  The paints are a consistency of water and therefore lend themselves to the watercolor technique that I enjoy.  There is a magic to painting on silk where the paint is allowed to flow at will making the medium an exciting and challenging one.  After painting, the piece is allowed to rest for a day.  I heat set the piece using an iron and then sew muslin to the back for stable framing or stretching.

My desire is to share my pleasure of painting with the viewer.
