“A certain thickness sticks nice!”

Leave a Comment

It’s all about the thickness of your paint. You start with a thick paint, then you thin it down as you add more layers on top.

How many layers can you put on a painting? More than you think, if you start with the right paint and then manage it throughout the painting.

In Bill’s videos he’s generally using just two layers of paint, but those who really know how to use Bill’s technique can use many more layers than that!
