I sew tan deerskin products and would like to paint flowers and animal pictures on them. I have seen  some painted deerskin pillows and bags on the net. But I don't know what kind of paint I should use. Please help. Thanks

I'm sure that there are many choices. The best to use on a surface which will be flexed somewhat or may be exposed to some moisture would be a high quality fabric paint. 

The Jacquard company recommends their Lumiere and Neopaque fabric paints for use on leather, or for a more transparent effect, you could use Jacquard's Dye-Na-Flow. Since these are recommended, I believe that other high quality fabric paints will work, as well, including SetaColor paints and PRO Chemical & Dye's PROfab Textile Paints.

For sources from which to buy these paints, see the listings for these companies on my Sources for Dyeing Supplies page at http://www.pburch.net/dyeing/dyesources.shtml, or look at the Jacquard Products web site's store locator.
