About Marina
I am a self taught Fiber Artist and a Certified Artisan with the Department of Tourism of
Puerto Rico. I have 20 years of painting experience which encompass from Acrylic and
Watercolor painting, to painting and dyeing Silk. As the owner of "Hand Dyed Silk by
Marina", I design and dye all of the scarves at this site.
I reside near breathtaking lush mountains
and beautiful coastal waters. The sweet
sound of the Coqui wakes me up in the
morning and lulls me to sleep at night. This
and the rich history of Puerto Rico are
where my inspirations come from.
All of the scarves are 100% Silk fabrics. I use China Silk Habotai fabric for all the "Batik" scarves. The
"Tie-dye" scarves are of Chiffon Silk. The "Silk Painting " scarves are Silk Charmeuse and Flat Crepe
Silk. All of the mini sarongs and the "Wall Art" pieces are in China Silk Habotai fabric and can be
mounted between two pieces of Plexiglas for a spectacular wall display.
Let your imagination be your guide.

All of my designs are unique, one of a kind, wearable art. They
are hand dyed fabrics with much thought to the color
combinations. The silks may be used as head scarves or bands,
around the neck, around the waist or hips. They can be worn as
shawls or mini sarongs. They can also be used as Wall Art.
