ATTIRE
- Casual wear is appropriate attire for painting, but select accordingly. Modern acrylic paint is usually water-soluble when wet. It is waterproof when dry. Aprons are provided, but you must still remain alert to avoid an occasional rogue paint brush or flying paint splatter. The Tipsy Canvas® is not responsible for clothing if damaged by paint.
