DVD Title: Silk Painting with Jill Kennedy
Jill Kennedy is the famous UK author of several books on her favorite art — silk painting. In this DVD she demonstrates 10 of her most called upon techniques for creating fantastic designs in silk. In this excerpt she demonstrates how wax often is preferential to gutta or other resists for it’s ability to contain or hold colors and be used in larger areas while providing similar effects to gutta’s ability to contain dye within regions. Here she emphasizes the ability to work with dyes immediately after application and demonstrates how fun it is to use traditional Indonesian tjantings and Japanese brushes to create “Pisces” or the “twin fish” design in the scarf she is working on.

“In Case I Go Again” Lyrics:
I like that when I come back home
I can always find you here
You know no matter where I go
That I’ll always come back home
And we wonder who we are
We can’t be sure
When all we do is wonder
Cause the future’s insecure
Just when I thought I discovered who you were
You change again
And I don’t want to run your life
But some things I expect
It makes me wonder why I try
Just to walk away in shame
In case I cannot stay
In case I go again
Everything still looks the same
Yet somehow I sense a change
But even after all these days
It’s nice to hear you laugh the same
And so we wonder who we are
We can’t be sure
When all we do is wonder
Cause the future’s insecure
Just when I thought I discovered who we were
We change again
And I don’t want to run your life
But some things I expect
If it makes you wonder
Why you try
Just to look away in shame
In case I cannot stay
In case I go again
When all we do is wonder
And nobody can be sure
When the world is going crazy
And nobody finds the cure
Just when I thought I discovered
What we were and who I was
Just when I thought I uncovered
Just when I thought I uncovered
Just when I thought I discovered who we were
We change again
