Painting with Salt

My first project in Art class was actually the most innovative one, I decided to recreate and artwork by Goya using salt to paint the earth. The first trials didn't go very good, I thought I would not be able to pint with salt, but at the end it turned out very successfully. At the beginning I used thin salt, that was  a problem because it would not even stick to the paper, but then I tried to make it with thick salt and it came out to be spectacular. First, I had to cover the  area with glue, next sprinkle the salt over, wait a little and then start painting over!  The effect with metallic acrylic over is just as its little rocks sticked to the canvas!! Try it out, there is so many things to do with salt!
