What Surface Should I use with Acrylic?

What is the best surface on which to use oil and acrylic paints?
The best suited surfaces for oil and acrylic are prepared boards and surfaces. Acrylic is more forgiving in that most non-oily surfaces will take acrylic paint. Oils paints must be painted onto prepared/ gesso primed surfaces. This allows for proper adhesion to the surface.

 

Canvas or Canvas Board?
