Most acrylics dry too fast for plein air painting, but OPEN Slow-Drying Acrylics from GOLDEN offer increased working time, expanding their range to include more traditional techniques once only possible with oils.
OPEN is one of the best acrylic brands for hot or dry climates. For artists in more humid locations, you can speed up the drying time by mixing OPEN with faster-drying acrylics like our Fluid and Heavy Body colors. Because OPEN Acrylics dry slowly, painters who cover their palettes or use sealed containers have been able to use the same colors for weeks, reducing the amount of paint wasted and saving color mixtures for future use.

Artist Esther recently asked if its possible to rehydrate dried up paint. While there isnt a way to save acrylic paint thats totally dried out, you might be able to rescue paint before its too far gone. Mike explains in this video.
Another option for artists painting in hot, dry conditions is to use a slow-drying acrylic like GOLDEN OPEN.
