Artist Prabhakara Jimmy Quek. Singapore.

There are many brands of acrylic paints. We can use any of them that are available in Singapore. Here is a photo of the smallest tube size of 12ml, then 38ml, 59ml, 60ml, 75ml, 150 ml, 250ml and bottle sizes of 250ml, 500ml and 1000ml that I have purchased before.

For beginners, I recommend them to buy a box of paint set that has basic colors like yellow, red, blue, white, black, green and brown etc. Different manufacturers have different names for their paint sets for beginners. Names like starter set, basic set, introduction set, selection set, primary mixing set, process set etc.. any names that they can think of. Sizes of the tubes from 12 ml, 20 ml to 40 ml, 60ml, 75ml or even 120ml etc...

A visit to an art shop will fulfill your needs of getting a box of acrylic paints and that it suits your budget.



Below two photos are examples of basic acrylic paint set and brushes, canvas, canvas panel, painting knifes etc that one would buy for the acrylic painting for beginner lessons.
