How I Keep Acrylic Paint Wet For Weeks

When I began painting with acrylics, I knew that the quick drying time would work for me in my painting process. What I wasn’t prepared for was the waste of materials and money I encountered when my paints began to dry on my palette. I tried to only squeeze a small amount of paint from the tube when setting up my palette, but somehow I never got the amount quite right, either squeezing way too much or so little that it made keeping the consistency of my color mixes difficult.

When I discovered the Masterson Sta-Wet palette, it really changed my process in the studio and in my work. In this video, I show you how I prepare the Masterson Sta-Wet Super Pro Palette for painting.
