Colour: Ocean Blue

Ocean silk paper is a unique painting surface crafted from pure silk fabric, backed with paper and specially treated to form a luxurious painting surface.

You will receive 4 sheets of paper backed silk, the exact material I use to create my chinoiserie paintings and silk wallpapers.

I've chosen a blend of light to mid blue-green tones with low saturation, offering you an elegant base colour perfect for chinoiserie paintings.

The silk paper is hand made in small batches and minor imperfections such as small marks or fibres are to be expected.

Each sheet measures approximately 23 x 35cm (9.05 x 13.7 inches)

Perfectly smooth surface, no slubs, bumps or texture

Paint glides on creating a luxurious finish

Can build up layers and add fine details

Can be used with a variety of paint types but I mostly love gouache and watercolour.

This surface can accept extremely watered down paint.

Create stunning techniques, from washes and paint effects, to ultra fine detailed artwork.

Plan your design in advance and transfer to the silk when you are happy with the composition. If you rub out pencil lines on this silk, the rubber marks may be visible in some lights. 

Do not over handle, grease from hands can cause the paint to resist the silk. 

Arrives to you rolled in a cardboard tube, please flatten by using a low heat iron, cover silk with paper to protect then leave to cool under heavy books.

Can I get a sample before investing?

I am sorry that at this time it is not feasible. I provide silk offcuts with every order so you can test your paints and techniques before approaching the full sheets.

I am too nervous to paint on it! What if it goes wrong?

I would advise planning out your design in light pencil first, start with your lighter base coats and don't worry if they don't look perfect. The first 3/4 of my paintings look quite rough, then in the last 1/4 it all comes to life!

Can I send it back if I don't like it?

The silk is non refundable unless damaged in transit

Why is my delivery taking forever?

Some international shipments can be subject to delays, although your shipment is expected within 10 working days, please wait at least 6 weeks before contacting. Express shipping will guarantee a fast delivery.

Do you have a tracking number?

I provide tracking numbers for all international shipments. UK customers will not recieve a tracking number, but the package is tracked and recorded on delivery/attempted delivery. 

I can see little marks under the silk, is this normal?

Silk is a natural product and paper backed silk is made completely by hand. Minor imperfections are to be expected and cannot be avoided, such as tiny marks or small fibres.

Do you sell other colours?

I do not currently offer any other colours, however you can dye this yourself using a very light wash of acrylic paint. I take a wide 15cm brush and brush on a light mix of a very small amount of acrylic paint and lots of water. Start very lightly as you can dry it and go over it again to deepen the tone. Test the tone on a regular piece of paper in advance. 

I want to paint my own Chinoiserie wallpaper, will you offer wallpaper panels?

Yes I offer full panels of silk here.

What can I do with these small sheets?

I created a set of 6 botanical artworks using silk pieces this size, I had them scanned at 600dpi and turned into limited edition art prints in small and large sizes. The collection sold out and turned a huge profit. The sky's the limit! Read more about that here.
