| 11 Aug 2004 | Iris Erlingsdottir | Loading...no comments?  O this is wonderful! and id really love to know how you got the weird paint effect on the background. It looks really good! Steph Steph Salt replies: "Thank you Iris. Try springling a few large sea salt crystals on wet watercolours as well as the normal table salt, and watch the results It's fun, I also sprinkled a few drops of colour here and there as well as splattering. And I used masking fluid to prevent any unwanted colour spoiling the area where I was painting the woman. Painting maskind fluid is also easier if you dilute some of it with water in another bottle as well. Hope you have fun, I did. " | |

It really gives you the sense that she is drifting through a magical sky. Steph Steph Salt replies: "Thank you Brian. If you are curious how I got the background, I've explained it in the post above this one Try it sometime, you'll have fun if nothing else. " | |

It's hard work but I enjoy it and the friends I make there.Also there are many sites on the web that help with tutorials, visit my web site there is a long list of links to some very good tutorial and anatomy sites.

I like her outfit! Steph Steph Salt replies: "The background was watercolour Starr and I just sprayed the colours out with an old toothbrush onto wet paper to get the effect. Thank you for your lovely comment." | |
