Another way to remove colored water before it stains the surface of the painting is to squirt it back into the desired location with water from a squirt bottle. Notice that the pulp I am using is green for the foreground of the painting (the green will eventually represent trees). To accentuate the rough outline that trees would naturally make, I leave the edges of the green pulp jagged, in order to mimic the trees in nature.
