Why poster paints!? If you’re just starting learning painting I would suggest using acrylics!.

When using acrylics keep the brushes moist!. Clean the brushes frequently even while painting!. After a painting session clean the brushes immediately!. I rinse the brush under running water!. (Just a trickle!.) But if you have allowed the brush to dry out with paint in them you will not be able to clean them!. They are ruined!.

Here are some instructional sites to help you get started in your painting adventure!.
