I also just scape off the paint at the end of the day...or the next day before I start...and begin with fresh. I used to try to save all that left over paint, too, but once I started using alkyds, that stopped fast, lol! Now, I often have to scrape and refresh at about the 4 hour point in the days painting because the paint just gets too sticky! I'm enjoying your blog and love your artwork!

I have quite truly discovered such methods to be false economy, as I was usually forced to deal with less than optimum paint, with each method--skinned, gummy, half-dried, etc. At present, I try to squeeze out on my palette only that which I intend to use for my session, and then I pitch the remaining paint. I do this after each and every painting session. My palette remains open (wet/usable) for a 3 to 4 hour session, or even longer, usually, because of the medium that I use.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05464141780714880280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878528435866018975.post-28775711579631584252010-05-01T09:32:32.704-07:002010-05-01T09:32:32.704-07:00Hi Bill,
