Mad ACEO: Salt

This week: salt!

I had an interesting time with this week's theme.

The watercolor-with-salt thing didn't work out so well...not that I'm surprised.  But I think at least a good share of the fault was the surface of my watercolor board.  I tried.  I really did.  The watercolor marker worked *much* better.  Definitely learned some things!
