I used Liquitex brand paint for the initial raw umber layer, as it dries really quickly, and allows me to proceed painting again almost right away. But when I start suggesting actual colors of the painting, as in this second stage, I use Golden brand's OPEN acrylics, which have a slower drying time. That way, blending colors will be easier!
Everything really comes together so fast. I really enjoy reading all the information you give us along the way. :) Looks like another "beautiful" painting is coming our way. :)
ReplyDeleteBruce has been sitting on my lap while I paint, giving me some direction. I appreciate his help! :)
