Getting ready

 Here are my experiments with thickened dye on silk.  I used some discharge paste on a pre-dyed silk to get the white areas to paint the fish.  It worked well.  We will try it.

 This is very free form painting with thickened dye and using black dye in a gutta bottle for the lines.
I think we can have fun with this technique.  It will work on silk or cotton.

Same techniques, different flowers.
I will be posting more information over the week-end.  I am still painting on cotton and trying a few things.
