learning how to use
Today was the second day of
casual experimentation.
I didn’t have the opportunity to
take any photos this time during the process,
but you can check out a previous
more detailed info on the technique.

They've been researching saline etch at the studio where I teach. Wish you lived closer…
Annie, we've all been pleasantly surprised at how well this works. I hope your studio has good results also!
