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.
Step 5 -- Paint with Acrylic. Apply the first coat of acrylic paint with a paintbrush or a roller brush over the dried and sanded latex primer. Apply a thin coat and thicken the coats gradually, specifically on the second and third coats. Allow the paint to dry before painting it over with another coat.
