Spring into Style with Silk Concepts

By Kate Knowles

Let Albertan artist Darcy Gusse Edinga draw you into the delicate, shimmering world of hand-painted Silk Concepts scarves and silk art compositions.

From a young age, she knew she was destined to be an artist. Inspired by textiles at an early age, she is still happiest when creating her hand-painted silk wearable art scarves or her unique silk art compositions.

Darcy is a graduate of the University of Alberta’s Clothing and Textiles program. She furthered her studies in textile and art at Penland School of Crafts in North Carolina.

Darcy’s artful designs, filled with eye-catching colour combinations and bold hues, surround you with lush elegance. Her creations are sure to open your eyes to the beautiful possibilities around you. You will cherish Darcy’s silk scarves for years to come.

Looking for something to remind you of home while traveling abroad? Be sure to pack one of Darcy’s gorgeous silk scarves. Choose from a plethora of images inspired by Albertan and Canadian landscapes:

  • wild Alberta roses
  • cheerful chickadees
  • sentinel grain elevators
  • gorgeous mountains and glacial lakes
  • rolling prairie landscapes with swirls of wind and hay bales
  • cool starry night skies striped with whirling auroras.

The maple leaves or moose designs could be the perfect touch for your Canada Day ensemble.

Silk Concepts silk scarves will throw light and love into your blossoming spring. Pick one out today at Shop AGA.
