oil,acrylic or watercolor?

All of those mediums can result in fantastic pieces.

It all depends on the artist and his/her style

I've tried all those.

Acrylic dries fast, and is more solid than watercolor. So lots of blending of colors, but it saves time b/c you don't have to wait for the paint to dry. paint is moderately expensive

Oil is tricky. It's easy to blend colors bc the paint doesn't dry for a couple of hours. Many artists do several oil pieces at a time bc waiting for one to dry would take forever haha. And paint is very expensive.

Watercolor is my personal favorite. You can layer your choice of colors. But the downside things won't look smooth most of the time. And be warned: use special paper for watercolor. or else it'll crinkle up and your beautiful art will be destroyed =[. watercolor is expensive too.

I advise you to start with acrylic. It's a good medium for both beginners and pros. It's not too expensive and easier to control!

All three mediums are hard to master at first. But be patient and stick with it~

Best of luck! :]

I prefer oils myself.

Acrylics are good, but they dry really fast so if you like to mix colors on the canvas it can be difficult if you're not a fast painter.

Oils are hard for some because it doesn't dry fast, it take 2 or 3 days to dry, but it's really easy to mix on the canvas. Also there's water mixable oil paints that work just as good as regular oil with less smell and less mess.

Water colors are probably the most difficult to work with because at time you can either get too much paint or too much water on it and after that most of the time there no hope for it once you mess up unlike the others. On Acrylic and Oils you can just paint over it.

It all depends on each person and how they use it though, this is just my experience and opinion on the three paints. Hope I helped some. :)

oils smear, and take FOREVER to dry. they are more of a hassle than anything. i love acrylic. although for landscaping watercolors can work out very nicely, providing you use a thinner canvas and only a WEE bit of water. I've taught too many kiddies who add a bunch of water and it just never works out, the medium doesn't actually show up on the canvas that way.

I've tried many mediums and settled on oil paints. They give me the look and feel i am looking for and the people i have done paintings for really like the idea of owning an ''oil painting'' as oppose to one done in acrylic.Taught myself to paint with library books and have my work posted at hellosanantonio.com under artist name GUERRO1. I've also done watercolor, too much work, too much left to chance and compared to oils i find the colors rather dead.

I would personally go with acrylic because its thick and bold [just like pastels]

Would love to see the outcome!!!
