I like using acrylic paint because it dries so quickly but I find it hard to achieve the detail that I have seen in other paintings; many artists can get quite intricate detail even in small paintings but it eludes me. I use a variety of makes -System 3, Galeria, Cryla, Liquitex, etc - and sometimes mediums, but I still fail to achieve the type of detailed painting that I would like to see in some areas.
Any advice would br appreciated!
Thanks
