Imagekind has Acrylic Artists
Artists have a wide variety of media to choose from when deciding which medium they want to use to convey their message. This lens will focus on only one, arcrylic paintings.
Acrylics are great to use because they dry quickly, but you need to be capable of working with a little speed. Acrylics are extremely versatile, fast-drying paints, and can be used straight from the tube like oils or thinned with water or a medium and used like watercolors. And a lot in-between. For some tips to help you get started painting with acrylics you can visit about.com
I have selected several of my favorite artists at Imagekind that work with acrylic paints. My hope is that you will visit their store to see more of their work. Enjoy...
Guy Benson
Guy has a God-given gift and he produces beauty that reflects his spirit and God,
who gave him his gift. His style is eclectic. He does not allow the "rules" to bind
him. Guy lets the subject matter and the medium dictate
the "style" employed. He works mainly in acrylic and watercolor.
Visit his site to view his photography, also.

Frame your art...
A few tips from Imagekind...
Imagekind has more than 160 highest quality frames. Don't miss their framing tips below:
Practice: You can cut templates of your art from paper and try arranging them on the wall to see how the framed art works in the space. You can also measure the amount of wall space you have to work with and arrange the paper on the floor.
Composition: Consider your frame grouping as a single unit.
Space: Your arrangement should hang closely together. If you have too much space between pictures you lose the visual effect.
Color and Texture Balance: Pay attention to color and texture when working out your arrangement. Keep the weight of your composition well distributed.
Create Visual Excitement: Definitely mix and mingle your prints by different shapes and sizes, keeping the weight of the composition well distributed.
For more tips visit Imagekind, at Framing Tips from Imagekind
A picture frame is a container added to a picture to enhance it, make it easier to display or protect.
