Cool Trick For Watercolor Paintings

What you will need:
- A wet watercolor painting
- any type of salt

This is a really easy way to get a cool effect on any water color painting. When Your artwork is still wet or damp place salt anywhere that you want the color to be absorbed(Note that the bigger the salt grain is the more it will soak up). Then simply let the painting dry and brush the salt off. This technique can come in handy when painting water scenes with a splash that you want to being to life or a night sky with stars. Experiment with different salts and diffrent amounts and most of all have fun!
