Acrylic paint is considered perfect for beginner painters for a number of reasons. Acrylic paint is a water-based, fast-drying paint made of tiny particles of plastic acrylic resin and pigment. It is typically non-toxic, and when dry, the particles fuse to become a robust and water-resistant paint.

Acrylic paints are also a chemical-based product so they dry out quickly, this often makes them preferable to oil paints which are slow drying.

Acrylic paint is versatile and can be used on multiple surfaces, including:
