PAINTING FOR BEGINNERS
How to paint an original picture with acrylic paints for home decoration.
Description of Acrylic Paints
Acrylic paints are suspended, fast-drying paints mixed in an acrylic polymer emulsion. The first water-based acrylic paints were sold as latex, used for painting interior walls in homes.
It is believed that paints of this type appeared in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s of the 20th century. Commercially, acrylic paints intended for artists appeared in 1950.
They can be diluted with water when necessary. They are made based on artificial, synthetic resins, polyacrylics, which cause the pigment to adhere to them.
This allows the paint to dry quickly and be cleaned without solvents. It is important to know that when the painted picture dries, the colors darken.
This type of paint can be used on any surface as long as it is not greasy. It can be used on glass, fabric, wood, metal, various cardboards, etc.
The advantage of this painting material, as well as the paintings made with it, is that over time, the paint does not crack as happens with oil paints, for example. Another advantage is that it has no smell and is resistant to various weather changes such as moisture, sun, wind, low and high temperature amplitudes.
Types of Acrylic Paints
According to their application, they are divided into:
Professional Acrylic Paints
They are made with the highest quality and pigment content. This allows them to retain their colors when diluted with water. Their qualities are of the highest level.
They are mainly used by professional artists and designers.
They are suitable for painting on any surface – glass, wood, various types of textiles, polyester, styrofoam, etc.
Professional acrylic paints are suitable for creating all kinds of paintings and decorations. They can be mixed with other painting materials – watercolors, tempera, as well as all other varieties of acrylics – matte, glossy, elastic, metallic, acrylic for gilding, neon.
They are characterized by high durability, do not fade, and withstand moisture, sun, as well as low and high temperatures.
Mid-Grade Acrylic Paints
The mid-grade retains good quality but is distinguished by the reduced pigment content. This also changes the price of the product. Despite this, the quality of this class of paints is preserved.
They are suitable for both professionals and amateurs because they offer various properties and characteristics useful for different techniques. These paints can also be used on any painting surface.
They are durable and have good coverage. If you still want to ensure the preservation of the applied layers, you can use a final varnish to seal the drawing.
Student Acrylic Paints
They are of relatively lower quality. If the differences in the other two groups are in the fine settings and degrees of high quality, with student series, the pigment quantity is deliberately reduced.
The type of pigments is not specified, and they do not claim high quality, only good price. They are intended more for children and school work. Acrylic paints come in different tubes of different sizes – milliliters.
You can choose from a unique variety of colors – white, yellow, green, blue, black, graphite, brown, orange, pink, purple, aquamarine, turquoise.
In addition to the main shades, in the EM ART online store, you will also find different variations of specific colors. The paints are available individually and in sets of tubes in several colors.
All items in the Acrylic Paints category are made from high-quality ingredients that contribute to the durability and intensity of the colors.
Applications of Acrylic Paints
Acrylic paints are one of the most preferred materials for painting by artists. Their use is extremely easy, as they can be used directly from the tubes. They can also be mixed with water to obtain lighter and watercolor shades.
When working with them, it is very important to keep the acrylic flexible, as it can dry very quickly. To avoid this, you need to squeeze out only as much from the tube as you need.
When painting, you can also use a palette. There are two types:
- Plastic palette - With it, you should spray a fine mist of water over the paint to keep it wet.
- Wet palette - The wet palette will keep the paint semi-liquid. When working with acrylic, it is very important to keep the brushes clean. Each time you rinse the brushes to change the color used, you need to dab them with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
If you fail to do this, water streaks will appear on your painting, spreading across the canvas and ruining your painting.
If you want to use this type of paint as a watercolor, you need to add water before applying the material to the canvas. This will prevent further color spreading. Unlike watercolors, acrylic washes are insoluble and can be painted over.
While watercolors can be wiped off with water and thus disturbed when reapplied. It is important to mix the colors quickly because acrylic paint dries quickly, and mixing colors can be difficult.
To extend the drying time, you can work on a wet surface. This will allow you to mix the shades on the paper easily.
Acrylic paints can be used on various surfaces – cardboard, paper, glass, wood, metal. Depending on whether they are diluted with water or mixed with other materials such as pastels, for example, their qualities change drastically and can imitate watercolor and oil paints.
They are used for creating:
Paintings
With them, you can create unique paintings in all styles of visual art – painting, still life, portrait, even comics and posters.
Thanks to the different painting techniques with this type of paint – plastic and wet palette, they can be used for various styles in visual art.
They also allow mixing with other materials – pastels, watercolors, and some additional pigments, called mediums, that create additional effects and shades of colors.
They can also be combined with all other types of acrylic.
Paintings painted with acrylic retain their color and do not crack. After the paint dries, the colors remain as intense, slightly darkening. If you want to seal the finished paintings, you can apply a final varnish or gloss varnish.
Cards and Invitations with Acrylic Paints
Acrylic paints are ideal for making cards and invitations for various occasions. You can create unique designs for invitations for all kinds of events and celebrations - weddings, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter, birthdays, christenings, and other occasions. They are convenient for this purpose as they dry quickly and do not need to wait long.
They combine perfectly with other work materials – pastels, watercolor pencils, paints, glitter, etc.
If you have not yet worked with acrylic and are not confident in yourself, you can look for manuals for hobbyists and video materials. From them, you will easily learn the techniques of working with this material of applied art.
Do not hesitate and touch the magic of acrylic!
Decorations with Acrylic Paints
Since acrylic is a material that can be painted on surfaces such as glass, metal, and wood, it is ideal for making various decorations.
You can use it for painting on glasses, bottles, plates, vases, tablecloths, and other items. This way, you can create interesting decorations for occasions such as weddings, birthdays, christenings, bachelor parties, and holidays – Christmas, Easter, St. George’s Day, Valentine’s Day, and others.
Acrylic is convenient for decorating any items because it is very easy to use, dries quickly, and does not crack.
Various types of varnish can be applied over it as desired.
Painting on Glass
As already mentioned, acrylic can be wet. Therefore, one of its applications is painting on glass. It is among the most preferred materials for decorating glass items.
With it, you can create amazing designs on the surface of glasses, candle holders, bottles, plates, glass bowls, ashtrays, and vases.
It perfectly combines with the smooth surface of the glass, and to achieve an even more interesting effect, you can use a final gloss varnish.
This way, the decorations will gain a dazzling shine and blend perfectly with the glass material. The abundance of colors provides the opportunity to depict various figures and elements. The paints can be used on all types of glass items.
The material’s intensity allows it to be painted on both transparent and colored glass.
Thus, you can create unique souvenirs as well as entire sets of glasses and plates.
It is also suitable for making wedding glasses and bottles. You can create an interesting festive decoration with colors of your choice.
In addition, with acrylic paints, you will create impressive glass panels and jewelry from glass.

It blends with the matte surface of the wood and looks extremely beautiful.
