How do you create layers in painting?

Today's Art Q and A

Q - How do you create layers in painting?

A - Layering in painting allows for multiple layers of paint to be built up to create more depth or to increase the amount of color saturation in the paint. Layering is done by starting with very light layers of paint and is increased in strength as each layer is applied.  Layering is most common in water based paints but the technique can be used in other mediums such as pencil or pastels.
