A lot of people are harsh on acrylic as a medium seeing it as amateurish and simple. However I love the boldness colours and textures you get. While I appreciate that you can layer oils and get bold colours etc but for a painter who is impatient acrylics are often the best. For the record I do enjoy the relaxed nature of oils and the way you can blend colours. I just feel you can get the affect easier with acrylic. I also know your not meant to actually touch the paintings...
