MAKE AND DO
How to Make a Sunrise Salt Painting
You will need:
- A large piece of firm paper
- Red and yellow food colouring or water paint
- Water
- Small bowls to mix the paint in
- A paintbrush or a small sponge and a peg
- Salt
- A kitchen scourer
- Blue or green cardboard Safety scissors
- Paste
- Yellow and black tissue paper
Create red and yellow paint by combining water and food colouring, or water and water paint, in small bowls.
Paint prepared colours onto a large piece of firm paper using a paintbrush. Alternatively, create a small pad with a sponge and a peg, as pictured above.
Sprinkle salt over your painting and set aside to dry.
Once your painting is completely dry, use a kitchen scourer to brush off all of the salt. The salt will have absorbed some of the paint leaving a pretty, crystal pattern.
