Acrylic paint is a good option because it can be used on any surface, however it dries really quickly.
If you know that nothing will disturb your session, paint away with acrylic! The quick drying of acrylic paint makes mixing the paints fairly difficult, but luckily you can use a retardant to slow down the drying process for a few hours.
Acrylic paint will darken over time, which may affect your artwork.
When it gets to oil and colour, oil paints have more pigment in them, which allows for richer and more vivid colours.
Oil is also a good option, because it stays wet for longer so you can get more done.
However, oil needs preparation and your canvas surface will often need to be pre-primed. Time has its effects on oil and you will notice some discoloration after a few years.
