When
painting one layer on top of another it is important that the
first be completely dry. Otherwise, the earlier layer will bleed
into the new in an unpredictable and often unaesthetic fashion.
Likewise, it is important not to overwork the second layer as
this might lift up color unintentionally. A second coat diluted
with too much water will have much the same effect. If one finds
this process unfolding, it is important to stop painting immediately,
allowing all areas to dry before proceeding.
