Celeste,

I have been looking for a good demo on fabric. I've found Virgil Elliot's piece at John Hagan's site very helpfull.

What I'm also seeing is the way silk plays with light. At the slightest turn of the cloth the contrast from light/mid/dark range is extreme and very defined. I'm going to apply this to a piece I'm working on now.

I hope this helps us both.
