Salt Art

In Art Week, the Senior Science Club made salt art.  First we sketched out a pattern using PVA glue in a squeezy bottle.  Next we covered the PVA outline in salt so that it was completely covered.  After we tapped away the excess salt to use for the next picture, we coloured the salty outlines with food colouring.  It was exciting watching the colour move along the white lines and merge with other colours at curves and intersections.  We liked how the salt crystals made the picture glisten in the bright light.
