Salt and clear glue were the two items I chose to experiment with.

I remember reading about the process in a magazine some time 

ago and thought it sounded exciting and unpredictable.

First I spritzed water onto some watercolour paper

then added some random water colour paint wash.

 

Before the ink dried, I drizzled  clear glue and rock salt on top

 These two items cause the paint to clump and repel in random spots.

When the paint is completely dry, I just brushed the salt off with my hands.
