IF: Star Gazing
August 16, 2010Just got home from a busy weekend to start a busy week, so for this week's Illustration Friday post I'm using an ATC-sized watercolor I did a while ago. I was experimenting with salt to create a star effect in the sky, but my wash must not have been quite right, or my salt was the wrong sort, and the effect didn't come out quite as I had hoped. Time to try again!

WOW ... this is absolutely stunning :D
ReplyDeleteEven if it didn't come out exactly how you wanted it it still came out very nice.
ReplyDeletethis still turned out beautifully with the silhouette. I haven't mastered the salt effect either, there must be some secret, lol!
ReplyDeleteThe texture is fabulous (even if it wasn't exactly what you wanted)!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, there must be a secret--a well-kept secret--about the salt effect. :)
ReplyDeleteOh--but it's a lovely lovely sky. SUch a deep and wonderful color and texture.
