Must say I must be crazy. I live in Southern California and right now and at 8 pm, the humidity is 10 %. Earlier today it was closer to 5%. And I am painting in watercolor! So far, so good. But there is a lot of dry brush and that is usually not my style.
Welcome! Here in Florida, we have YOUR humidity, send me your FEDX number and will overnight it to you! 12:00 pm, a couple of nights ago, 76 degrees felt like 79, and 84% humidity!
Martha and Rich. thank you both for the support. I was just so surprised to see how quickly the paint was drying. So many of my techniques just could not be done, forcing me to paint in a different way. Turned out I liked it!
Having lived in SoCal for about 10 years - about 30 years back I left - but we had a swamp cooler out in the desert - so painting in the house wasn't too bad - but I painted some out in the desert as well - spray bottle helps.
