Acrylic paint is a quick drying paint made of pigment that is suspended in an acrylic polymer emulsion. Although water soluble when wet they become water resistant when dry. Acrylic paints were first used as early as the 1930's but did not really become commercially available until the 1950's. These paints were also later sold as latex house paints. Many artists such as the abstract expressionists and famous artist Jackson Pollock used latex paint in his large "drip" canvases. The early inventors of Pop Art such as Roy Lichtenstein also used latex paint on their canvases. But, often latex paint has become so unstable in adhering to the canvas that the paint literally flakes off when moving the art object. Obviously not intended to do so, acrylic paints have been a cheaper alternative to oil based paints and often are much easier to use than having to mix your own. The main difference between acrylic and oil paints is the binder - linseed oil for oil paints and water for acrylic. Acrylic paints also dry a lot quicker than oil paints.

  • Artists Describing Their Art:

    Denise Dalzell - Painting. Illustration. Expressionism. Pop Art. Modern. Realism and, occasionally, a bit of Abstraction. My current work centers on my consideration of how we respond to each other, the stories that develop between us and around us, and how our collective stories reflect on and influence us individually. How our stories bounce off each other and combine to create new stories. My paintings are illustrations of the scenes that I encounter during my travels abroad and in daily life so, some scenes are more sweeping than others. How do we, as people of differing backgrounds, cultures, and experiences interact with each other Are we different people in a crowd than when alone How do we fit in or stand out where we find ourselves at any given moment, in any given story Stories are everywhere, and thereAC/a,!a,,C/s no predicting what theyAC/a,!a,,C/ll reveal. Body language, movement, color, contrast combine to illustrate my scenes of interaction between people and within environments. The excitement of being a part of something as unifying as a protest, the sense of adventure that comes from starting out with no particular destination, intimate moments with those we love and those we discover in the big events...

    Celina Mattar - I started painting when I was still a little girl. In high school I was a great student in English, math and drawing and my teacher was a Finnish nun. On Saturdays we painted still lifes, grapes, fruits and vegetables in general and when I was 12 years old, as I loved ballet, I painted two ballerinas that I still have today. At the age of 17 I wanted to go to Rio de Janeiro to study at some art school, but my father vetoed it and preferred to choose Emeric Mercier to be my teacher. Emeric Racz Marcier was a Romanian painter naturalized in Brazil, today considered an icon in painting. Emeric Racz Marcier was a Romanian artist who studied at the Accademia di Belli Arti de Brera Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, Italy, from 1935 to 1938. In 1939, he attended the sculpture course at the A%0cole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts National School of Fine Arts in Paris. In 1940, because of the Second World War 1939-1945, he traveled to Lisbon, where he stayed for a short time and spent time with the painters Arpad Szenes 1897-1985 and Vieira da Silva 1908-1992. ...

    Engelina Zandstra - In the labyrinth of my thoughts there are many roads that are leading to the unknown. many roads are leading to the unknown - around every corner a surprise - fata morganas unprecedented views - paintings designed according to laws of their own. ...

    John Cielukowski - I focus on painting what interests and fascinates me. I also try to promote awareness of animal welfare issues through my paintings. I donate my work to local and national animal welfare and environmental organizations for their fundraising efforts. I received my BA in Fine Arts from Montclair University in New Jersey. I also studied at the School of Visual Arts SVA and The Art Students League in New York City. I am a founding member and board member of the Studios of Cocoa Beach, Florida. I am also an active member of the Central Brevard Art Association, located in Rockledge, Florida. ...

    Paulo Medina - Para mAfA, el arte, ha sido como una pequeAfA+-a barca en donde he cruzado muchas veces el mar. Una barca frAfA!gil y pequeAfA+-a, sin embargo, capaz de cruzar hacia grandes horizontes. La barca ha sido un instrumento AfAotil, pero nada mAfA!s... La pintura es poesAfAa silenciosa SimAfA3nides Artistic experience, as a spectator, and then, more directly, as an artist, has meant for me the possibility of transcending and reaching certain spaces that are intangible, but lived daily. As a creator, to be in front of a blank canvas or a digital image to be manipulated, is to be faced with a challenge that of translating to the language of forms, textures and colors something that has not yet been conceptualized, but that exists somewhere and that I desire to capture, expressing it through those materials and tools at my disposal. It thereby becomes a kind of game, in which time disappears and one enters into communion with the aesthetic experience with its infinity of moments, which go from pain to ecstasy. Self-taught experimentation in the field of art, has been for me one of the great pleasures of life. La experiencia artAfAstica ...

    Geo Kat - Always the QUESTION.What is ART. Maybe THERAPY. Maybe DREAMING. Maybe...casting the PAST. Or better... the FUTURE. Or just to be... PRESENT. I dont know exactly. But I knowat least, which is my inspiration, all the old mastering, the great NATURE. Humanity. Personas very different in space and time, like Praxiteles or Botticelli or Candinsky. .......... Of course we, humans, we are nature, part of nature, part of natures mystery...... May be my well effort as an artist is to explore this MYSTERIOUS and fantastic world, and create an art that is not exist yet, as an INVENTION...............or you can say exists, but is not expressed into EXISTENCE yet. And this art exists as a living person FULL of dreams of colours of happiness, GOOD will and HEALING matter. ___I suppose also that my inspiration is whatever still lives UNDERNEATH this ancient old city, Athens...... What ARE YOU thinking ...

    Avril Ward - ArtistaEURtms statement. Creating has become an intricately woven part of my life. I must express nature, as it is my window to God. I must delight in the human body, a marvel that never ceases to amaze. I must express love and joy-this keeps them tangible in my life. I must trust my instincts and skills allowing them to lead me in the right direction. Most importantly: if my art can move a person to pause, think, smile, ponder, cry, laugh, be encouraged or give them hope, then I have served my purpose in life.aEUR To view a video about, my inspiration and work methods in sculpture please copy and paste the link to your browser.
