It depends on the type of paint used in the existing painting. If it is an oil painting, you will need to use oil based paint. If it is a water based medium, like acrylic, use a water based paint. Gesso will work well for this. It is inexpensive, opaque and will help level the texture of the existing painting. You may want to lightly sand the painting before painting over.
Get your painting surface. You can either paint on a piece of plywood (or sections of wood with cross supports) or paint on canvas board or stretch canvas. Choose any medium onto which acrylic paint will easily adhere. 2. For wood, consider layering the surface. Find textured or origami paper for the surface.
