Photograph of wet pulp that was barricaded with the metal ruler once the ruler is removed. To get rid of excess moisture, I tilt the screen the painting is resting on at an angle and allow the water to drain off the screen. Applying a dry, absorbent cloth to the edge of the wet pulp (where the wet pulp rests against the drier pulp) and allowing the water to absorb into the cloth is another option to hurry drying. The pulp cannot be re-worked until it is dry or nearly dry.
