    Love to use the salt with watercolor to creat a beautiful snow effect. Try it you'll love the look once it is completed dry. Let it dry slowly on it's own the salt cause a crystal look. Once dry then brush off the salt. Happy painting 🖌️

    can we see what these look like once dry ?? sometimes watercolor looks different after it dries especially when the technique has the color slowly moving /bleeding on the page it doesnt look the same when the paint first hits the page (wet) to when its dry ..

    That's a good point. This exercise is so quick and easy. I'm planning on doing it tonight... that way I can see for myself. Maybe there is a longer video with the results on her channel.

    The salt one i’ve tried before and I think it ended up looking similar to how she showed it, the salt does mess with the pigment in an interesting manner

    20+ years of off & on watercolor classes and I've NEVER seen the rubbing alcohol trick! Tried drinking plenty of the booz-ey kind!!! Okay, mostly so I didn't care as much that near the end the painting looks fairly good. Then, I always ALWAYS make some stupid mistake and ruin it!!! ALWAYS!!! Another technique that I love is splattering the paint using various sized straws and metered puffs of air to blow the paint into wonderful shapes & effects!

    If the canvas is watercolor paper, it should! If you’re painting with non-watercolor paints or a non-watercolor palette, things won’t react in the same way.
