What is an Acrylic Painting?
Acrylic paint uses a synthetic resin to bind pigments. It can be diluted with water to the desired consistency for painting, but becomes waterproof once it has dried.
Due to its versatility and being quick drying, it is a popular painting medium used by many artists.
History of Acrylic Painting
An acrylic resin was initially developed by German inventors Otto Rohm and Otto Haas in around the 1930s. The "Rohm and Haas Company" became a global chemical manufacturer and was later bought by the Dow Chemical Company in 2009.
Mineral-spirit based acrylic paints and water-based acrylic were later developed in the 1940s by other companies. This enabled acrylic paints to be used more readily in other commercial applications, such as, for painting houses.
By the 1950s, acrylic paint increasingly became a medium used by artists to create their artworks. Artists favoured use of acrylic paints as they were more affordable (than say oil based paints), they held colour well, dried quickly, were water-resistant once dry; and artworks created using the medium looked appealing.
