linda b asked:


Can acrilic paint be used outdoors? I want to paint something onto a rock for a friend. I think she’s going to put it near a pond. If acrilic paint is not the answer, what kind can I use?

   you can try oils, or even acrylic will do, as long as you apply a coat of varnish over the completed rock.
