Yes I have used acrylics in my Fotempera process for a number of years, most
work quite well, but Liquitex artist colours are very good also Golden
acrylics take a lot of beating.A synthetic yellow can be completely
transparent and ideal for three colour. Try Hansa or Azo both are
transparent, print these yellow's last, the rational of this statment ,
