Acrylic

April 26th, 2006 Leave a comment Go to comments

A type of water soluble artists’ colour, made with co-polymer acrylic resin as a binder. These paints tend to be fast drying and can be applied either thick, like oils or thin, like watercolour. Acrylics being watersoluble are often adopted by artists who work in mixed media. Liquid acrylics have the quality, feel and colour depth of ink.
