In this delightful workshop, a painting class in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, you’ll learn how to create a beautiful silk sun catcher using pre-prepared templates, making it the ideal activity for beginners. A perfect progression after our Coffee Break Silk Painting sessions, you will dive into the world of silk painting without the need for drawing skills. Your main focus will be playing with colours and savouring the gentle movement of silk paints.
  • You'll be working with silk that is already stretched on a hoop, allowing the colours to flow freely and creating soft blends and a stained-glass–like effect.
  • This workshop bridges the gap between painting silk cards and silk scarves, offering a more expressive experience than cards while helping you gain confidence in colour flow and scale before attempting a scarf.
The supportive and relaxing atmosphere of the class ensures that even with no prior experience, you will feel at ease throughout the process. The transformative nature of silk painting will leave you with a stunning silk sun catcher to take home, showcasing your newfound skills and creativity.
