White Oak and Parachutes

Learned a lot about painting on parachute cloth this summer while serving as lead artist for an art skills training program for youth. One of the commissions I project managed was a 90' painted and mosaic tile mural at the White Oak Community Center in Montgomery County. The painted portions were painted on parachute cloth which really isn't parachute cloth at all, but a non-woven white light weight synthetic fabric.
