If you were to think of the most glorious sound that could ever be produced…As if Heaven itself were to part the clouds for the briefest of moments and all the Angels gathered to sing their most Angelic song, and it was so beautiful that it could only be heard for a single whisper of a moment or the gloriousness of the sound would overwhelm everyone on Earth….yep, that’s the Brandon McDermott Band.

Spectra Art Paper is a quality tissue that can be used for a variety of art projects. It bleeds color when wet and is especially effective on silk.

The silk fabric we will use can make fashionable scarves, banners, pillow coverings or a lightweight quilt.
