Artist's Comments

This is my second time doing this exercise, so I could demonstrate to my students the salt technique. This one is bigger than the first one I sumitted. Slightly different, but I ended up painting more layers over this, so this only exists on my computer. I am a bit sorry I didn't stop here... sometimes I don't know when to leave well enough alone.

This is really neat!!! I've heard about a similar technique with the salt, only it is done with fabrics instead of paper. I'd like to try it sometime.

Well, I say, you never know 'till you try. When I first saw a silk painting long time ago, I was so amazed by the colour, I told myself I just had to try it one day. It took a few years, but I finally tried it, and fell in love with the process and result. Watercolour is the next best thing to silk painting. Hope you'll try it. It's fun! :)
Thanks for the nice comment, by the way. :wave:

Thanks for the nice compliment. :hug:

Yes, this is a really cool effect. I think I first used salt effects with silk painting. It creates a really gorgeous effect on silk, because the colours are so vibrant, and the silk is just gorgeous to paint on.
I recommend you try it. Why not? :) :wave:
