textures - watercolour + alcohol + salt

© JANE MINTER 
texture swatch -  watercolour + alcohol + salt
initial watercolour wash  with alcohol and salt
canson fontenay cold press 300g/m2

.....alcohol was squirted in areas and also applied with cotton wool bud... salt was then sprinkled in areas .... the paper became translucent where the alcohol was applied .............when the paper was bone dry after a few days I was able to float another wash on top the initial wash.

Ciao,Jane!Visto che hai sperimentato,due domande.Il traslucido che lascia l'alcool va via,in seguito?Ed hai usato alcool denaturato o quello bianco che si usa per fare i liquori?Grazie per queste condivisioni!Buona domenica!
