Pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP) is when people at very high risk for HIV take HIV medicines daily to lower their chances of getting infected. PrEP can stop HIV from taking hold and spreading throughout your body.
In the dry plaster or fresco secco technique, pigments are usually mixed with water, although other substances might also be used. The paint is then applied to a dry plaster wall which has been wetted down with water. Since the plaster is relatively dry, it is non-absorbent, and the pigment adheres to the surface of the plaster. This technique differs from true fresco (described below) in several ways. The colors tend to flake off the surface of the plaster.
An example of the drybrush technique using black acrylic paint on illustration board. Drybrush is a painting technique in which a paint brush that is relatively dry, but still holds paint, is used. Load is applied to a dry support such as paper or primed canvas. The resulting brush strokes have a characteristic scratchy look that lacks the smooth appearance that washes or blended paint commonly have.
