More Paint and Today Salt

Today I did a little quick fabric painting and sprinkled it with coarse salt. See the full piece above. Below is a close up and some really cool results. Click on the photos for close ups.

But look at the back! I have no idea how I got this result. Not sure what it reminds of but I just love it.

I sometimes like the backs better than the fronts!

I've used salt on regular watercolor paintings but never fabric paintings, but I will have to try this. Looks great, back and front!

You should do a tutorial on this! (hint hint)! Please tell us what kind of paint you used, and describe the full process!!!

Although I love the front, the back is breathtaking! Love the effect!

Nice! Have you tried sprinkling salt on sun dyes? And I agree, the back is often better than the front.

Thanks for commenting on my blog - I have added you to Reader.

These look really good to me. I know what you mean about not looking quite as you might expect with salt but the final outcome is very nice anyway. A happy accident I think!!!
