Ensure the artwork is left undisturbed to dry completely, typically for 24 hours. Avoid touching the painted areas until fully dry. Ensure good air circulation in the drying area.

Child finds the 3D painting technique difficult.

Encourage practice on a scrap piece of paper first. Focus on simple dotting or line techniques as guided by the booklet. Offer gentle assistance and praise effort over perfection.
