## About Fabric Painting Masterclass

When you paint on fabric, the biggest mistake is over-layering, which makes the cloth stiff and uncomfortable to wear. In my masterclass, I show you how to blend colors in one or two light applications, keeping the fabric soft and wearable. Whether you are working on a silk saree or a cotton T-shirt, controlling the paint consistency and your brush pressure is the secret to getting a result that looks like a professional print, not a heavy patch.

Fabric painting is about understanding how light and shadow interact with your design. Many people try to paint by filling in flat colors, but that often looks stiff. I teach a 'wet-on-wet' blending technique that brings depth to your motifs, making them look real. We start with the basics of brush holding and color mixing, so you do not need any prior experience. I explain exactly which brushes to use, like the 000 size for fine outlines, and why letting sections dry before adding the final details is crucial for clean edges.

We cover a variety of surfaces, from heavy cottons for T-shirts to delicate fabrics like organza and silk. My classes are available both online via Zoom and offline at my Kadubeesanahalli and RR Nagar studios in Bangalore. Because I keep my batches small, I can watch you paint in real-time, correcting your grip or paint consistency just as I would in a one-on-one session. Whether you want to customize your own wardrobe or learn a skill to create thoughtful, handmade gifts, this course gives you the technique to make it happen.
