Summer Rose

By Hilary Broad

Materials Required:

Habotai 8 Silk 12cm x 12cm.

Silk painting frame and pins.

White paper and masking Tape.

Vanishing marker pen.

Tube of Black gutta.

Small paintbrush.

Artists palette or an old saucer.

Silk paints: Red and Green.

UHU All purpose glue (black top).

Card mounts: AP52U-30, White

and AP03U-18, Deep Red.

To Make The Card:

Wash and iron the piece of silk to

remove any treatment that may have

been applied to it then press with an

iron until perfectly flat.

Make sure you have plenty of time

before starting the next stage as the pen

lines will disappear after approximately

2 hours.

Place the silk over the diagram on

the following page, hold in place with

a little masking tape and trace over the

lines using the vanishing marker pen.

Stretch the silk across the frame and use three

point frame pins to hold it in place if you have

them, if not standard single point drawing pins

will do. You can use an embroidery hoop instead

of a frame if you like but bear in mind that paints

can be quite messy and may stain the wood if

they come into contact with it. An old margarine

or ice cream tub is also a good alternative.

Paint the rose in red mixed with a very little

water, an artists palette is ideal for this but you

can use an old saucer or plastic lid. Apply a

small drop of the mixture to the centre of a petal

and allow to spread to the gutta line.

While the paint is still damp, apply a small

amount of plain water or very dilute paint to

make a highlight within the petal. To get a really

strong highlight, paint the highlight area with

plain water first, then apply deeper colour to the

area around it. Remember that once the paint is

dry you cannot change it or add highlights.

Continue painting all the petals in the same

way, use the photo to guide you if you are not

sure where to put highlights on the individual

petals.

Go over the lines using black gutta squeezed

directly from the tube. It is usually worth practic-

ing this on a spare piece of silk until the gutta

flows evenly from the tube or you may get an

uneven or gappy line. Check there are no gaps

in the line then allow the gutta to dry completely

before painting.

Use green for the leaves, applying highlights

with water as needed. Mix the green paint with

a little more water to make the paler green

background.

Use shades similar to the petals and leaves

for the red and green border around the edge

of the design. Be sure to mix enough paint to

work all the way round as re-mixing always

results in a slight colour change.

Once the painting is complete, allow to dry

naturally. Not all paints use the same method

for fixing so follow the instructions on the

packet for the type of paints you have.

Trim the silk leaving a 1cm border all round

the design and place face up on a flat surface.

Cut the end flaps off the square white card

mount and discard them. Apply a thin line

of glue round the back of the aperture, hold

it over the work and lower onto the design

aligning it centrally in the aperture, press

firmly until it is stuck.

Cut a 12cm square of white paper, glue

round the edge and stick over the back of the

design, this will give you a white background

so the colour from the main card does not show

through and degrade the painting. Mount the

design into the red oblong card in the usual way.

The square card has a slightly smaller aper-

ture than the oblong one so ‘double mounting’

the design allows a small edge of white to show

in the aperture giving a little extra contrast and

a very attractive finish.
