How to Paint With Water Soluble Paints
- 1). Squeeze the desired amount of water soluble oil paint onto your palette. You can mix colors just like traditional oil paints.
- 2). To thin your paint, add several drops of water mixable linseed oil. For a glaze or other techniques that requires transparent paint, add linseed oil a few drops at a time and stir with a palette knife. Continue to add water mixable linseed oil until the paint reaches your desired consistancy.
- 3). Load the paint brush by gently dipping the edge into a color, and pulling it away. Apply paint to your canvas as you would with traditional oils.
- 4). Rinse brushes clean in cool, running water after each color.
