Troubleshooting

Paint is bleeding through the paper.

Ensure you are using an appropriate amount of paint for the paper weight. Apply thinner layers or allow each layer to dry before adding more paint. Consider using a gesso primer if bleed-through persists.

The paper is warping after painting.

Apply paint in even layers. Try to avoid applying too much paint in one area. If warping occurs, let the paper dry completely under a flat, heavy object to help flatten it.

Difficulty in blending oil paints.

Ensure the surface is properly primed for oil paints, and use appropriate oil paint mediums to improve blending and drying times. Allow adequate drying time between layers.
