Fabric Wall Hangings in Silk

Fantastic individually hand painted fabric wall hangings as a centerpiece for your wall.

As the breeze comes through they shift slightly, giving them an ethereal quality. Each of these fabric wall hangings in silk have a double layer which gives them more depth, rich color, and movement in the image.

Laura Sims paints each of these wall hanging by hand from her studio in Bakersville, NC. Bakersville is about 1 hour north of Asheville in the Blue Ridge Mountains, near the Virginia border. Her latest work is a culmination of 20 years experience.

They weigh very little in comparison to a picture with a frame and installed with very little fuss. The mounts that come with Laura's paintings can be hung into drywall with two simple nails. All her mounts are made with North Carolina hardwoods and designed to complement each piece. The clean, Asian inspired design work well with the silks.

The painting is a mirror image placed side by side on one long piece of silk that drapes over the bottom rung of the mount. Its then secured with three strong magnets. The mounts go on the wall with two small nails, no re-enforcement necessary.

After the image is transferred to the silk and gets steamed, the dye transfers into the fabric which displaces the original black dye in the silk. This makes each painting color fast and durable for any use outside of direct sunlight.

Hand washable with cold water and mild soap. Not to be hung in direct sunlight.
