ARTWORKS
The
Atis Fanm (Kreyol for Women Artists) draw their designs
on white, 100% silk scarves with a clear liquid resist. Non-toxic silk
paints are then brushed between the lines. Afterward the colors are
heat set with old-fashioned irons fueled with charcoal. The resist is
washed out in the community stream, leaving a clean, white line separating
fields of color.

Images
can be repeated for orders, but because they are drawn and painted by
hand, no two are exactly alike. Given the nature of the process, small
imperfections add to the character of every piece, each of which is
signed by the artist who paints them.
Depending
on availability of materials, some color combinations are different
than shown.
