The difference between wet and dry acrylic paints. Acrylics tend to dry a bit darker. Especially if you start on a dark background, some colours may even disappear. These actually held up quite well 🎉
Where my acrylic paint artists at?! This hack will change your life 😮💨 Make sure to put a book or something heavy over the second layer of parchment paper to keep any air from getting in! I’ve seen people use Ziplock backs too but my tray is too big! Hope this helps 🤩

Hack for my cutu artists✨
Store your acrylic paints in the freezer after use and they’ll stay wet longer, no more dried-out palettes and wasted paint! 🫶🏻

The fast drying time of acrylic can be a blessing or a curse. If you need a slower drying time, consider using this!

I never clean my palette immediately❗️I let the acrylic paint dry and peel it off later. It’s the most satisfying thing. It’s addictive - i spend an embarrassing amount of time scraping off the paint with my nails lol😅 but I LOVE it! Also, I’m keeping the peels to make something with it. Maybe make a sculpture or do a “mosaic” piece with it. We’ll see once I harvested enough ✨

Acrylic paint is surrounded by common misconceptions that cause some artists to avoid the medium. Drying time, permanence, surface prep, and depth are all more adaptable than some artists assume. Taking a fresh look at the medium can open up techniques that might be overlooked.

Stop painting on raw canvas ❌
Prime it like this for smooth blending 👇
Iron first (low heat).
Then apply 3 gesso layers for professional results 🎨 I let each layer dry for around 8 to 10 hours.
Your painting will look 10x better ✨
