Seahorse in the Deep Deep Sea

 
This bright little seahorse is in watercolor with salt on the background for texture, watercolor pencils and pen & ink on the body. I did this little exercise with Deb Richardson at   
Jerry's Artarama last night.
Salt is a great technique for showing texture, motion, foam,  snow in various ways. It certainly captures a nice fluidness for water.

  2. Thanks Lydia! Great to meet you, classes with Deb are always such fun. I appreciate all the info and especially a good alternative to gamisol. I will see you again at a studio tour or possibly at your seminar for artists.
