a palette knife mixes the paint much more effectively/efficiently than a brush will. you should be able to buy them at any arts and crafts store. a palette knife will also allow you to scoop a more precise amount out of paint containers.
a plastic cup: a moistened plastic cup over wet paint will keep the paint wet for a while. dont leave it too long or it will get moldy
freezing the paint: i havent tried this myself but ive heard freezing acrylic paint will delay the process of it drying.
acrylic retarder: this method requires more commitment to acrylic painting as the chemical can only be used with acrylic paint iirc. but it will slow drying time and allow you to work with the acrylic for longer on the canvas.
Help im stupid and when i first got into painting i only bought acrylics and a lot them are out of the bottle and in like little cups
Whats the easiest way to mix acrylic paints and shit that doesnt waste paint. Like im so tired of every time i want to paint having to waste soo much paint bc like if i try to scoop a litlte paint out of the cup its like. Paint city!!! And i dont need all that and its just so ugh hgfh.
With the bottles its easier to control but not really like. I can make a teeny pea sized drop of paint last a while but i cant fucking GET. A tiny amount. Its all these big huge gobs of paint

3. what are some passions of yours?Ancient Egypt, GT, prototype, concept, and supercars...music, books, plastic canvas/cross stitch, helping others and being supportive, hmmm just being honest and nice, i mean it’s so important in such a crazy world19. do you keep playlists for your music?
not many actually, i have like greatest hits by my favorite band type playlists, which are just favorite songs, i used to do a kinda yearly favorites playlist but havent done one in awhile, i usually just put on an album and leave it playing, or one song
20. is there anyone out there that you trust with your life?
my mom and sister mainly, probably @while-the-days-slipped-by and my best friend in Texas and possibly her bf and his best friend, other than that not totally, might consider a longtime friend in Miami, but he surprises me sometimes so I know he’d make sure I wasn’t homeless or starving, but not sure about my actual life exactly, not saying he wouldn’t, just not something I’ve considered...34. what's your face care routine?lol wash it whenever I shower at the least...shooting for every evening, but still working on my routine some....i don’t wear makeup or anything like that tho...i sometimes put lotion on if the skin is super dry40. tell us about something you're strongly opinionated about
how not to treat people, history, especially ancient, anything to do with kids or animals, basic rights, education and livelihood related rights, hmmm and that honesty really is the best policy, even if i’m anxious and shy as hell...i just avoid topics, not one to lie...lying is horrible mostly, i mean if its a white lie for a positive surprise by all means, but otherwise no bad57. chocolate or strawberry milk?
chocolate milk is so yummy @.@
Thank you kind anon!
