What is the best acrylic paint to use when painting on canvas?
I would like to start painting and I noticed that people were using acrylic paint on canvas in the art work that I liked. Is that all there is to it? Are there any brands or types that are better than others?
In the United States at least, the very best and highest rated by artists is Golden. M.Graham is a close second. But unless you're not worried about your budget both of these brands cost 25% to 30% more than Liquitex Pro and twice the price as the lower end brands like Winsor & Newton's Galeria. Neither Golden nor M.Graham sell a lower priced 'student' version of their paint.
If you're just starting out I would suggest you start with something like Liquitex 'Basics' or W&N's 'Galeria' or Dick Blick's Acrylics. Wait until you're creating work your really proud of before moving up to the top of the line quality paints.
