Then you've come to the right place :-) Hi - my name is Teena Hughes and I've been painting on silk for 30 years, and teaching people all over the world. I love to make videos about silk painting, and I have online courses, home study course DVDs and free videos on this website.

Dan, Georgia & Zoe learning how to paint on silk

I was at the Royal Easter Show in Sydney in April, teaching people of all ages silk painting - I had a faaabulous time!

Here are a few photos & a video >>

I had kids from 2 and 3 years old having a go at silk painting, all the way up to teenagers and adults, and I had the BEST time! There's nothing more special than showing people how to do something I love and get so much enjoyment out of!

You can see all the photos and videos on the Easter Show page >>

I've been teaching silk painting for thirty years, and I still remember how scared I was that I'd make a mistake ... so I understand what my students are going through when they first start out. I do my best to take the fear away and show each person that they too can go home with a wonderful piece of silk which they have actually painted all by themselves.

So - are you ready?? Sign up today (in the hot pink box) to get notified about upcoming workshops and things to do with silk painting, or check out the Calendar of Workshops - or contact me to talk about what you'd like to learn. Looking forward to meeting you soon!
