Silk Sunset, 30 in 30 - Day 9

I haven't done a silk painting in almost 2 years.  That's amazing to me because I really like to paint on silk.  I approached this one in a different way than usual.  Usually, I like to do detailed paintings using resist to control where the dyes go but for this painting, I just got the silk wet and started adding the dyes.  I put salt on the bottom section and I'm not sure I am really happy with the result.   To me, this looks like the land after a forest fire.  I guess that can be an interesting subject but definitely not the look I was wanting.

This hasn't been steamed and washed yet so there are some creases showing in the photo.

I will try this again and see what some experimenting can produce.
