Acrylic paints are the go-to paint medium for many artists because they produce deep, exciting colours, and are versatile enough to be used on almost any surface.
Quick-drying and water-soluble for ease of clean-up, acrylic paint is also an affordable way to explore the art of painting as a way of bringing your creative visions to life.
Beautiful acrylic painting ideas for beginners
When it comes to getting started with acrylic paints, there's no shortage of inspiration and ideas to explore. The boldness and richness of acrylic paint colours means many beginners will dabble with impressions of rainbows and block colour artworks that feature abstract shapes with dark borders for definition.
Landscape paintings in red, green and brown tones that evoke autumnal panoramas, or other variations on the colour spectrum that represent spring renewal and summer heat, are great projects for beginners to build their confidence. While night-time scenes are perfect for experimenting with black, black shades and greys, and refining colour-mixing techniques.
Painting fruits and fruit bowl still-life are also excellent for beginners. Use luminescent yellows for lemons and bananas - brilliant reds for juicy, ripe apples, and succulent orange tones for citrus fruits. Pineapples, kiwifruits, mangoes, cherries and grapes provide ample opportunity to experiment with mixing colours for adding realism to your canvas.
