definitionRemoving color from wet or re-wetted paint using a brush, paper towel, or tissue. A technique in its own right, not merely a correction method; forms the basis of subtractive painting. Lifting creates soft edges and reduces color intensity, leaving only undertones. Detailed lifts can be made with a slightly damp brush.
