What do I need to start painting with acrylics?

A starter acrylic kit needs paint, brushes, a surface and a palette. For paint, a set of 12 colours in student grade covers the basics; add titanium white and ivory black as essentials. For brushes, a mix of flat and round synthetic brushes works best with acrylics. For surfaces, stretched canvas or canvas panels are the most common choices. A stay-wet palette keeps your paint workable longer. Add a retarder medium if you want more blending time. Explore our Paint collection, Paintbrushes, Canvases and Painting Accessories.
