Agree it’s reasonable and leading with no comp change lowers friction. I’d add a one-paragraph role scope that maps your work to senior competencies and pair it with 3 quantified outcomes or client quotes to make it concrete. Offer an “Acting Senior” title for a fixed period with explicit conversion criteria, and ask to document the revisit date so it doesn’t get buried in review season.
When you're just starting with acrylics and look for sets that have a good mix of colors in smaller sizes so you can experiment without committing too much paint at once but then that way and it's easier to manage drying times by only using what you need. For your budget, focus on affordable options that still deliver bright, vivid hues that pop on various surfaces like canvas or wood.
Including brushes in the set is a smart move for beginners; it saves you from buying extras right away. To keep the paint from drying too fast, try working in a humid environment or use a palette that holds moisture. Works great for blending colors smoothly.
Overall, prioritize ease of use - paints that flow well and clean up with water will make your home projects more enjoyable without frustration.
