Hand painting a silk scarf.

Painting a silk scarf in my studio and then using salt to get a starburst effect. I'm using Dupont French dyes. The first clear liquid that I put onto the silk  was dilutant. The dilutant I used is made by Dupont. It helps the dye spread when covering large areas with dye with out leaving streaks. It is not really necessary when painting a scarf, I was just experimenting with it in this video to see if it had any effect on the spread of the dye. You can purchase the dilutant and dyes from Dharma Trading. The blue claw-like hooks that are stretching the scarf are called Chinese Suspension Hooks. You can purchase the China hooks here: https://www.dharmatrading.com/tools/c...
