[Aquanet] a question that verges on heretical

[Patrick Davis]

Hi, gang.

Altho I am quite happy painting in w/c, I do have an urge to branch into 
acrylics as well. I find, however, that the tube acrylics I have dry too 
quickly on the palette and are also hard to work with in that they are 
lumpy. I have just bought some liquid acrylics, but I am also quite 
frugal. (Such a nice word!) Anyway, can I make my own liquid acrylics 
successfully  from my old tube stuff by putting them in a jar with water 
and acrylic glazing fluid, or am I just teasing myself? I am trying it, 
but after sitting several days in a jar with regular shaking up, I still 
have a lumpy mixture. (Okay, the acrylics sat in a jar, not me)

Any suggestions- other than working on my grammar?
Pat
