RE: Salt painted snail

in Draw A Day17 days ago

wow this is a nice piece I was not aware of salt painting really until I saw this one. I see some tutorials online but they add salt to a surface to be painted in order to give it that worn out aged look that is it. I wonder if the salt you used for this piece will eventually melt? or will the glue would make it stay iintact?

Sort:  

it was a very temporary artwork that fell apart almost immediately on being carried ><

I think with a higher quality glue and perhaps if it got more time to dry before I added colour it'd have done better but sometimes art isn't meant to last.

This is the tutorial we used for this. https://artfulparent.com/raised-salt-painting/

That's a helpful website thanks for sharing
