DYES & TECHNIQUES
I use a range of different techniques of dyeing and painting, traditional and modern. The buying technology of ombre and shibori are more than a thousand years old, at the same time contrast gradients and controlled aleatory are actively used by textile designers only since the 20th century. There are also completely my own unique methods. Usually I try to combine several techniques on the fabric at the same time. This complicates the process of painting, but gives interesting results.
Dyes and techniques, which I use, do not damage the fabric and do not reduce the softness of the velvet pile. I always work with alcohol-based dyes from the same old French firm. Objectively, those are high-end in the professional segment of fabric dyes much more expensive than competitors, but perform the best and most stable colors. Paints are fixed with steam. My fabric does not fade and does not fade in water, besides dry-clean, hand washing is allowed, see the Care section for details.

VELVET
I am using silk velvet, it is a classic blend (18% silk / 82% natural rayon). It differs from antique samples by composition and method of production, however this is the most delicate, smooth and soft one from all velvet types that are currently available. Radiance is a natural behavior only for silk velvet. It shimmers just like silk do and changes color depending on the lighting. With its incredible tactile and optical features, it can look absolutely modern, but it is quite difficult to achieve. From my experience I can say that its interpretation in the modern spirit is the most difficult adventure for a textile artist, but also the most interesting one too.
