Secrets creation paintings only palette knife. Artist Rybakow. In this article: Difference between acrylic and oil paints for creation paintings.

Personally, I prefer acrylic paints.  Number one, They don't have the awful smell of oil paints nor do you have to use toxic thinners and solvents with them.  Number two, acrylics dry quickly and can be layered either in a "dark-to-light" or "light-to-dark" ratio.  Number three, acrylics are ideal for the way I like to paint--I don't have to wait long for the paint to dry and I can see the picture progressing right in front of me.  Number four, acrylic paints don't muddy very easily and aren't as fussy as water color, gouache, and tempera.  Number five--I like to lay hands on the canvas/board after the paint has dried and I don't have to worry about the paint coming off on my hands or staining the surface I'm working on.  I simply don't like using mediums which force me to "walk on eggshells", so to speak.  Last and best of all, acrylics are water-soluable.  For ease of use, accessibility, and a relatively inexpensive price, I'd go with acrylics over other painting mediums.

I love painting wiht acrylics but can't give over the richness of oils.

I like acrylic, but then i haven't used oil yet.

i hate to burst so many bubbles out there but....

Acrylic is not arcival. it is always open. meaning it will collect dirt, dust, and what ever is in the atmoshere around it. when you or the buyer tries to have cleaned it it will simple whip away with cleaning products unless it is sealed... just like when anyone who gets something  on our wall and you try and scrub it off knows some of the paint will come too.

if you dont believe me please contact a conservator, waiting around for someone to discover ways to clean it with its so many problematic concerns is irresposible for an artist.

painting with oil can be safe as well--- use nitrile gloves to project yourself from the heavy metals in the paints. use linseed oil or safflower oil in place of mineral spirits or turps.

throw away rages in a closed container everyday when you are done.

try using automotive hand cleaner such as "Goop" the white paste one not the orange citris cleaner to clean your brushes when you finished.

if you just have to use the toxic stuff; dilution is the key to dealling with polution, dilute with less toxic stuff like gamsol which has a third the toxicity of mineral spirits. you might also try spraying final varnishes outside with an appropriate mask on.

using oil any other toxic ways is irresponsible to yourself and our family, for confirmation just find an older artist who wasn't carefull in their youth and ask them about their health problems. Ultraviolet pulled me a side and in her french accent  when she came to my studio," don't be a fool use gloves when you paint!"

I only will use acrylics , Clean , fast drying , then again I only paint  3D stuff

Whether and it is possible to create acrylic paintings as at me on www.rybakow.com?
