I've really enjoyed using Golden Open acrylics lately. Golden has a great reputation for their acrylic and their open line is made to stay wet longer. One of the big issues some people have with acrylic is how quickly it dries making it difficult to mix on the panel/canvas. The open acrylics stay wet for hours.
Golden Open Acrylics are great - really strong pigment and slow-drying so you can continue blending colors and your palette won't dry out. They're recommended in some starter guides to alters. They're not super cheap, but the pigments are strong so a tube will last a long time.
One caution - some colors are better for color mixing than others. I got the "Landscape Colors" set and had a hard time mixing colors to match original art. Everything comes out muddy and grey. I'd suggest you get the Color Mixing Modern Theory set. It has the pigments they use as a foundation to get all the other colors.
