Salt Art

On a saturday afternoon while i returned from office early due to a severe bout of sore-throat and raging fever, i got an excited call from Aaina who explained the process of Salt art to me. It went in a highly excited tone of how we must first paint "whateverrrrr we want" and then sprinkle "lots of salt" on it and once dry, we must shake off the salt.And, she went on to say i have found one full plain sheet so come home soon and we can both do this - arent you excited ???!
My head swooned with thoughts of all that salt and the accompanying excitement but it surely put a smile on my face and i stopped to buy some thick drawing sheets for her to make up for my lack of enthusiasm.
This is what she came up with...



The waves are made as per her original process description. By the time she got to the Whale she ran out of patience and mixed the salt with the paint!
Needless to mention, we kept finding grains of salt under our feet all over the house!
