Awe! Pretty kitty. I love it . I also really like the texture of the background. I’m curious, how is that effect accomplished?

magic salt. haha. i wet the entire part that i want to have the effect with clean water. then i add in wet color randomly and while its still very wet, i sprinkle coarsely ground sea salt onto it. let it dry. then brush away the dried salt. pretty simple. sometimes i go back in with a darker color and add depth to the pattern that the salt made. you can use regular table salt, but that gives it more of a uniform effect since the grains are all the same size.

Hmm…
Sea salt you say ? I may have to give that technique a try when I’m doing watercolors again. Thanks, Daydreamer !
