Today, latex can vary widely in quality by the type of resin used, and buyers should ask about it at their paint store. Acrylic is best, followed by vinyl acrylic, but all vinyl is not as good.
I must confess that I find latex much easier to work with today. It doesn’t require a wet edge, so the painter can stop mid wall and start later without seeing any line. It dries fast, and best of all, wet paint can be cleaned with soap and water. But I have used it only for wall surfaces and ceilings.
For trim and doors, I use only alkyds or oil based paints because they are more durable when they dry. Clean up, though, can be bothersome, requiring mineral spirits. I’m embarrassed to admit that sometimes I just throw out the brush or roller rather than attempting to clean them.
Family room, this is a place where you and your loved ones gather to watch movies, play board games or simply hang out with each other. The art should be family-friendly and appeal to everyone - both young and old. Artisoo.com offer beautiful oil painting reproduction by Claude Monet, Vincent Van Gogh and Pierre August Renoir. While these are classics that usually appeal to most families, we also understand the need to liven up a room. Try some abstract oil painting reproduction, so that adults can ponder the meaning of it while children will enjoy the simplicity of the colors and shapes.
