Add water. Dip your paintbrush in a cup of clean water and then gently tap the water from your brush onto the paint.

(throw away dried crumb of color) 2.

Whenever you do oil painting, you can use a small spray bottle so that you can spray the color in between. If you have to do it the next day, then spray a little and cover it well.
