Silk painting

Two Christmases ago my parents gave me a silk painting kit. It took me until this past weekend to get up enough courage to try it out. Not surprisingly, I'm starting with abstract colors and SALT! I'm totally enamoured with the effects you can get by sprinkling salt on wet watercolors.... you can see the salt crystals in the 3rd picture (where I haven't brushed them off just yet).






Now what.... what do I do with these? Hmmmm............

I love the dreamy quality of the colours.
