“I
am inspired by silk, an amazingly soft, sensuous and durable fabric. I started painting silk in 1989 and have developed several lines that take their inspiration from my love of life and passion for beauty. Each collection is individually designed, hand-painted, signed and dated as an original work of art. Every design seeks to capture energy, enthusiasm and light! Combining vibrant colors and various techniques with the flowing texture of silk I create beautiful, art for you to wear and display.” -Joy Light, designer
Joy Hand Painted Silk presents
seasonally inspired art to wear and accessories that offers an opportunity to escape from global fashion with handcrafted work that hopes to inspire through light and bring a small amount of joy into your life. Painted silk is an ancient art form. It is about serenity, beauty and the healing power of light and color. Modern luxury is simplicity, an escape from the dissonance of the industrial and media worlds into a world of peace and harmony. The beauty of this work is that it is for
wearing. In the wearing it finds its final purpose; transforming the wearer with its light, channeling human energy into a unique presence. Bringing pleasure from the eye to the heart. Each piece has its own personality, a life of its own, channeled by the artist into our world.
Light is the essence of the work, the silk dyed, wrapped, steamed, and unfurled into its final form. Even to the artist, the work reveals itself. That is the mystical quality of the craft - Light flowing through and around. We hope you find as much pleasure in this work as the artist has enjoyed bringing it to you.
