Confessions of an Acrylic Paint Addict
by Amy Stultz (Mar 31, 2004)

* 23 different bottles of paints ranging from shades of white to pink to black.

* 3 small Tupperware bowls stained from mixing custom colors.

* 5 paint brushes in varying widths.

* 1 accident involving a 4 year old, a dog, and a bottle of blue paint.

I am not sure if you can technically call it an addiction or not, but I do know that if there was ever a 12-step program for acrylic paint addicts I would be one of the charter members. There is just something about those little bottles of paint in a rainbow of colors that calls my name every time I walk past them in my local discount store. They seem to be saying, “Just one more, you NEED just one more.” Of course, I always give in a buy just one more bottle. Who can blame me when they only cost a buck?

My addiction does not stop at buying these cute little bottles. That is just the beginning. My true addiction begins when I sit down to scrap. I have found that lately the first thing I pick out after I choose a photograph is my paint color. There is just something about using acrylic paint on my layouts that gives me a rush. It is similar to the rush I feel when I decide to hand journal. It is that feeling in the pit of your stomach that makes you hold your breath as you think to yourself, “I am about to go to the point of no return. I could mess up this whole layout in a matter of seconds.” Rarely, does the use of paint actually mess up my layout. In fact, I have found that acrylic paint is very forgiving. If I do not like the way it looks I can simply paint over it with a color similar to my background and start all over again.
