Description
An Amy Brown-inspired experiment with salt.
This is my first work with the new watercolour pads I bought recently. Their texture is good and they actually resist water, unlike the previous ones I had, which couldn't take as much. Also tried that technique of achieving texture by applying salt... not sure if I succeeded but I like some parts of it
The background is supposed to be the Pleiades open cluster (M45) now visible in the northern hemisphere and the chick is Alcyone, the brightest star in the cluster, and the oldest of the seven sisters in mythology (not entirely sure it was her or Maia)
little reference used (woohoo!)
21.6 x 27.9cm

Good to see you painting again!
Love the saltperiment, and the texture it created.
Have you tried ever tried cling wrap? I hear it creates very interesting effects!
