oils vs. acrylics
: Can one achieve the warmth and luminosity found in paintings by Titian for example using acrylics?: _____________________________________________: Absolutely not. : If you are afraid of turpentine (the only solvent to fear) use oil of spike for mixing and mineral spirits for washing the brushes. If those are too much for you, use anothe medium but don't expect watercolor to look like pastel or acrylics to look like oils. If you are a prudent and careful apinter, oils are perfectly safe. If, however, you can't paint without getting it on your hands and clothing, use a water-based medium like acrylics.
