"ANGELA FRACASSO: Hi, this is Angela with ExpertVillage.com. And I'm in the--this segment is about kind of blending in the sky with the wall. In the last segment, I started putting in the sky and then what I've done to help blend into the wall because we just kinda want it to fade out. This whole mural is going to kinda fade out into the background. And so I've just added a lot of retarder medium, acrylic retarder medium. And then I've kinda wiped it out a little bit and smoothed out with a damp cloth. So that's one of the reasons why I like to work with acrylic because you can--it's water soluble. So if you want to thin your paint, you can thin it with a little bit of water but I've noticed it makes it really runny so I like to use a medium. And you can use any kind of medium but this also increases drying time and helps it spread kinda like a glaze. And then it also helps to stand back a little bit and kinda see where you're going and you can't always see everything from right up. So I'm just kinda drybrushing it a little bit to kinda mix it in and then I stand back a few feet every time--every once in a while and see where I need to be. "
