That's just how it is where I live. >90% humidity, >80F.

I could try a fan or AC, though the place where I painted did have air flow. For now I'm just using a hairdryer to help the paint dry lol

Where I live it's 0% humidity always and universally and I can't even do watercolor techniques but at least my electronics don't self-destruct
