How do you clean art paint?

Published in Art Supplies 1 min read

Cleaning art paint, especially from brushes, depends on the type of paint used. One simple method for cleaning acrylic paint involves using your hands and running water.

Cleaning Acrylic Paint from Brushes

Here's a method mentioned in the reference video for cleaning acrylic paint:

  1. Run water over your hand: Let the water flow across the palm of your hand.
  2. Rub the brush across your palm: Gently rub the brush bristles across the palm of your hand while the water is running. This helps to dislodge the paint.

This technique is particularly useful for quickly removing acrylic paint from brushes before it dries completely. Different paints, however, require different cleaning methods.
