That is some real artistic talent there. I can only dream of being that good.

Amazing what one can do with regular table salt! I just saw another video this week...probably the same artist. All I can say is "Wow!" TFS.

If you just showed me the end result, I would have never guessed it was salt! Amazing!

Seriously I must have been in the bathroom the day they were handing out artistic skills 'cause I got robbed!

Now I have a question though--how do you suppose he preserves that now?

Kinda hard to hang on the wall n'est pas?

What goes through someone's mind? "Oils.... over done by the traditionalists, water color.... too flat, I know....Salt!!!!"

I mean, give credit where credit is due. The guy has more talent in his little finger than I have in my whole body.....
