These are designs I call the black lace series. They are complex, textured patterns that all involve designs painted on folded silk with black dye. Backgrounds vary from solids to gradients to watercolor blends. I use some of the same motifs–spirally evil-eye thingies, hearts, flowery thingies. I don’t know what they are. Each time I do it the results are unique. Thanks go to Tedi for so beautifully modeling some of these!
