In this video I show you how to use salt in your watercolor paintings. I take two kinds of salt: fine salt and kosher salt and compare their effects side by side. I test each kind of salt on different consistencies of watercolor. Which is more important? Pigment or water? Take a look at the video to find out!
At the end of the video I also show you two step by step tutorials using watercolor and salt to create a snowy mountain and a dandelion. The unique effect of the salt with the watercolor creates the perfect texture for both of these paintings.
