What can I use to paint with besides traditional paint brushes?

Some of these include sponges, rollers, foam brushes, and blocks. You can even use your fingers, just like you probably did as a toddler.

What kind of paint brushes do I need for acrylic painting?

Many artists recommend using a synthetic brush for acrylic painting rather than one made from natural hair. Acrylic paint can actually damage a natural brush in just one or two uses. You can also look for brushes marketed specifically for acrylic painting.

What supplies do I need to start watercolor painting?

To start watercolor painting, you'll need a handful of supplies, including, of course, watercolor paints. They typically come in tubes or pan form. You'll also need paintbrushes and a cup of water. You'll need paper. If you're just practicing, you can use any paper, but for your actual paintings, you'll want to invest in watercolor paper. You might also want a palette and something to clean your brushes with when you're finished painting.
