Acrylic Paint
Acrylic paints are one of the most popular paints for professionals, artists, and those looking to get started in acrylics for painting, art classes, crafting, pouring and ceramics. Acrylic paint is much like any other paint in that it is made from a simple combination of ground pigment and a binder. They are water-based and easier to wash out of brushes and most art materials. Shop and save on high quality acrylic paint for artists at Jerry’s Artarama.
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.
It is important as an artist that you choose the right brush for your acrylic paints. Better acrylic art brushes are very important in your outcome. Brushes are tools and using better brushes allows an artist to paint better, have a better experience, achieve a better outcome and lasts longer

Is Acrylic Paint Waterproof?
Acrylic paint is not waterproof, but it may be somewhat water-resistant when it dries. Can withstand some exposure to water without immediately smudging or dissolving, it can still be affected by prolonged contact with moisture. 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.
What Do You Use to Seal Acrylic Paint?
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.
What's the Difference Between Acrylic and Regular Paint?
The main difference between acrylic and regular, or latex, paint is that acrylic paints are chemical-based and latex paints are water-based. Both of these types of paint are made with acrylic resin and polymers, but the base is what differentiates them. Other differences between acrylic and regular paint include:
Acrylic is more sun and water-resistant than regular paint.
Acrylic is elastic while regular paint is more prone to chipping.
Greater difficulty cleaning up acrylic paint than regular paint because acrylic is chemical-based.
Regular paint has fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs) because it is water-based.
Acrylic paint tends to be more expensive than regular paint.
