Been a while since I posted some art, I've been trying out different painting strategies with acrylics.
This first one I used no water - just paint straight from the tube. I found it very difficult to work with as it dried out very quickly and was quite thick.

This second one, I loaded water into my brush and then mixed it into the paint. This was a lot easier to work with but I heard that water will lessen the longevity of acrylics.

Anyone got any tips on achieving a good paint consistency with acrylics? I'd appreciate it - merci beaucoup!
