Acrylic Painting Tips
Acrylic paint dries very quickly when applied in thin coats, and work well on materials such as posters and signs. As compared to oil paints, acrylics allow the use of other media on top of the dried acrylic surface and can be used in high gloss or matte finishes.
To slow the drying time of your acrylic paints, use an extender. An extender is an acrylic medium that slows drying time while increasing the "open time" of artist paints. This allows you to blend colors and edges with ease. Jerry's Artarama carries a large selection of discount artist acrylic paints online, including SoHo Acrylics, GOLDEN Acrylics, Liquitex Acrylics, Amsterdam Acrylics, Old Holland, Sennelier, Van Gogh, Winsor & Newton Acrylic Paint and more on sale.
Always Choose the right brushes for acrylics! Better acrylic painting brushes are very important in your final outcome. Brushes are tools and using better brushes allows an artist to paint better, have a better experience and achieve a better desired outcome.

To make your acrylic paintings waterproof, you must apply a sealant - to make your acrylic paintings waterproof, you can apply a varnish or sealant over the dried paint. Varnishes create a protective layer on the surface, making the painting more resistant to water damage, UV light, and other environmental factors.

To seal acrylic paint, you use a varnish or enamel spray. There are multiple options to choose from depending on the type of finish you want. Select from varnishes made of polymer or resin, choose to brush or spray your varnish on, and decide whether you prefer a satin, gloss, or matte finish.
