Hello everyone,

As I love to paint with various media, I thought I'd try acrylics. I have not found anything about this medium in the forum so I had a hard time choosing among different brands of extra-fine acrylics.
I finally chose one and received it yesterday.

Here is a sketch I did today with primary colors plus white in about fifteen to twenty minutes. Acrylics dry so quickly that I think I will have to practice a lot to get used to it! All those visible brushstrokes couldn't be avoided even if I painted as fast as I could.
I used acrylics with water, no other medium.
Have some of you ever tried acrylics? Any comments welcome. I would also greatly appreciate if you could post some of your works done in acrylics, or any advice about brands, medium, grounds, etc.

Sincerely,
Karine
