But I would maybe try construction paper or any other kind of paper first just to make sure it works the same. I just like the thickness of watercolor paper and the paint soaks into the paper, but not through the paper. We found it worked better to get the speckled look if you put a bit more paint in a spot (than you might if you were just painting a regular water color picture) and then sprinkle the salt. Again, I would just try out whatever you're thinking ahead of time to make sure you're happy with the end result. :-)Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12944204657462978748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120776759774073428.post-16762181367532281552013-09-02T14:23:38.235-05:002013-09-02T14:23:38.235-05:00Is it necessary to use watercolor paper, or will w...Is it necessary to use watercolor paper, or will white construction paper work just as well?
