Acrylic and Oil Layering Tips with Craig Nelson 

Try Demar varnish

Devin Iyer g

You could try rubbing alcohol to remove the acrylic paint the alcohol will not harm the dried oil paint. 🎨

Yossi Bitton 😁 You dont have to worry about the gloss until the entire painting is finished and completely dry. Then you can use either Liquitex gloss varnish or Gamblin Gamvar gloss varnish over the entire picture. They both give beautiful shine and bring out the colors very nicely! Two coats is best , letting them dry for a few hours at least inbetween coats.😁

Maybe i don't know how acrylic works if we compare it to oil colors,,as from my oil paintings experience when the under layer is dead no matter how shine the varnish you put the painting will still look dead :) so i guess it different if we dealing acrylic colors right? however I will give it a try as you said, thank you

@@dnelaaIt could be numbers of things. Maybe your support is sucking the paint dry. Before painting, reduce the absorbency with a layer of matte medium, or for even less absorbency, gloss medium. Be careful to not have too much water in your brush when painting. Use mediums... faster drying mediums on lower layers, slower drying mediums on upper layers... and Yes, use layers. If your last layer is not good, either treat it like the last layer, by testing the paint to ensure the last layer will look the way you want before painting the whole layer a way you don't want... OR... maybe you are not really done with the painting... Maybe you need another layer... Quitting on a layer that is too early can look thin, washy, muddy... Consider more layers
