Celestial mess for WOYWW

I'm having a spot of bother this week.

I can't seem to drip, drop or splosh

water colour paint around

like I want to.

I wet the paper and wiggled the paint 

around in an attempt to paint

a sort of star nebula

for this weeks APR theme of star gazing/celestial.

I can see it in my head but it won't 

drop out onto the paper,

I even shook my head but it won't come out.

I have a book that shows how to make cute squiggly things

with salt.

Looks easy til you try it.

Not a lot happening here.

 This is where I put the table salt

and this is where it is staying.

The book said let it dry and brush it off,

mine is stuck fast.

Looks really purty when the lights shine on it,

so I might keep it there anyway.

 
 

I have sea salt on there now,

goodness knows what will happen when that dries.

Might have to rethink the theme a little

and try something else.

It was fun though.

I did finish my first commissioned pet portrait

this week.  I can't put it on the blog until

the owner picks it up from the store

as she should be the first to see it.

Will show it next week.

Now you've seen the mess I've created,

hop on over to Julia's 

Stamping Ground and see what others

have on their desks,

this WOYWW wednesday.

I hope you noticed that it was short and sweet this week Julia.

It doesn't happen very often!!!
