ow ow ow ... first time playing with watercolours and salt - what fun. Well I won't show you the ones that didn't turn out - different card definitely gives different results. This was just a card scrap and I just used up some of my Brushos leftovers and sea salt on the bottom and table salt on the top and wellah I have a scene.... thought the green at the top looked like a tree so I painted in a truck and branches and a few leaves and the green blobs on the bottom could be 'salt' bushes. I just added a bird. Thank you CAS Watercolour August challenge for suggesting we try 'SALT' - I'm sure having fun. ps. Can we reuse the salt rocks we brush off maybe they'll leave some colour behind? Thanks for taking a peek
Hi Robyn, That is fab.

ReplyDeleteWow, Robyn! What a wonderful scene! I love the tree and the blue "bushes" or flowers! I don't know about reusing the salt, but it's worth a try! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Watercolour!
