About Today’s workshop – Wet on Wet

Wet on Wet technique is used for blending work. Essentially you’ll add your paint color on canvas, and while it is still wet you can add another color, and blend them together while they are workable and wet on canvas. Working the blends on canvas while both paint colors are still wet allows you to get smooth blends and gradients.
