What is Acrylic Paint

Acrylic paint is its own animal and has many qualities that I absolutely love.

  • I love that it dries quickly.
  •  I love that you can clean it up with soap and water.
  •  I love the vibrant colors it has.

In this video I’ll explain the difference between craft paint, student grade paint, and heavy body professional paint.

When learning to paint, I believe a good student grade paint is best. I would steer clear of really discounted paints, or paints that are almost generic in name.

In order to keep the cost down early in your art journey, I recommend buying the three primary colors, red, blue, and yellow, titanium white and Mars black.  It’s a really good idea to learn how to mix paint creating the colors you want.

In the description box of this YouTube video I share links of other videos about acrylic paint.  I hope you’ll give this video a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel.  It is loaded with videos created specifically for beginning painters.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Let’s paint together real soon.
