One of my Very First Acrylics

I believe this was my second Acrylic painting I did back in the Seventies.  I had done some oils and then decided to take some classes in Acrylics.  I liked them much better because there was no turpentine smell and fuss.  Plus, it was much easier clean up!  Since then I have done many more Acrylics than oils.  The colors are a little brighter I think so if you want the really darks I guess you  shoud stick with oils.  They seem to make a richer and deeper quality painting.  It is only a matter of preference.
