Tim Harding's "Oaks", Mascha Mioni's "Drache-Shibori" and recently "Body Skin and Hair" and "Perfect Hurts" by Sandra Backlund. Its effects on designs are unquestionably accepted. (Sterk, 2005, p.29), (Duncan, 2002, p. 124)

"2.6.5 Mascha Mioni
Growing up in Switzerland, Mascha Mioni is a painter whose oil paintings on canvas were exhibited all over Europe. Later in 1986, as she studied dress-making, she started to develop silk paintings and design silk dresses.
