WCW268 7-16-25 Create Cherry Blossoms with Salt
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: pixordia

 Good Morning. Welcome to Watercolor Wednesday again. This week we are using a tutorial from Emma Jane Lefebvre using a fun technique with salt to create a Cherry Blossom tree.



Use Keyword: WCW268

What I found really helpful was how the artist demonstrated testing the effect of salt with swatches before beginning the painting, however I did notice in the video, when making her swatches it shows wet onto dry but (when doing the actual painting) the artist uses wet into wet. It does affect the result of the swatches.

Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with an area after each comma.
If you are new to the challenges, you can do this one or any of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. All the challenges are to provide inspiration and to get us painting.

Your blossoming cherry tree is magnificent! Love the "airiness" you achieved with its flowering branches. Lovely card.
