Atelier Interactive Artists Acrylic 80ml - Series 5

Chroma designed Atelier Interactive as a paint for artists which would be more responsive to the aesthetic aims and paint manipulation effects that they require. Conventional acrylic paint has always dried very quickly, with no transition stage between wet and dry so that most painting is wet paint applied over dry. Interactive however does not form a skin during the drying process so there is a 'window of opportunity' at the transition stage between wet and dry. Atelier Interactive dries in exactly the same way as conventional acrylics, but the paint thickens as it dries and you will notice a tightening effect as the brush comes into contact with the paint surface. This is a signal to use a water sprayer to restore the moisture balance. As long as you continue to do this, the surface will stay workable. Water spraying intervals will vary according to air temperature and humidity.
