About Silk Painting

Even at the hands of a master, silk paintings can take months to complete. Linda's images are created with French steam set dyes that shimmer on charmeuse silk. The jewelry in each painting is created with a metallic resist called gutta that sparkles like real gold. "Silk painting is an ancient Asian art form -- very unique and mysterious. The silk itself is seemingly so fragile yet it is one of the strongest fibers in nature. There is also a serendipitous quality to painting on silk with dyes. The process never allows the artist to be fully in control or to know exactly the effect that will be created." Linda Marcille Original silk paintings of New Orleans jazz legends like Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone. Vermont artist, Linda Marcille. Linda Eaton Marcille jazz paintings are available to view and buy at Stonehurst Gallery. Who is this legendary jazz and blues guitarist? BB King? Buddy Guy? Robert Johnson? BB King? Buddy Guy?

The original paintings are priced very reasonably to the person or family who will cherish and care for them. We would prefer to sell them as a set or perhaps split them into two sets, if necessary. Dimensions are 29"W x 25"H, matted and framed (actual image approximately 20"W x 15"H).
