either way were glad your here
were going to start with our acrylic paint
…...what is it?
a water-based, fast-drying paint made of tiny particles of plastic acrylic resin and pigment. It is typically non-toxic, and when dry, the particles fuse to become a robust and water-resistant paint.
Please consider the environment and seperate paint solids from your rinse water.
Here is a link to Golden Artist Colours article on their blog Just Paint that explains the process.
Widely used by artists since the 1960s, acrylic paint is versatile, can be used on multiple surfaces and can be used thickly or thinly depending how much water or medium is added to it.
a couple of things to remember...
Its colour becomes darker when dry, so be aware of this when mixing colours.
it’s hard to remove from brushes or clothing once dried so don’t paint in your best shirt!
