Question beginners advice please...

Hi everybody,
I usually work with pastel, and must admit have not been around this forum much. But, that's about to change, I hope!

I am looking into working with acrylics. I used to work with some years ago, and loved it.

But, I don't know (or have forgotten ) much about it.
So a few questions, hoping there anybody who can help me out here:

What's the difference between acrylics and gouache?

I used to work with Galleria's acrylics. they came in nice large pots (I am one of throwing loads of paint around ) Which brands would you recommend? Is Galleria really best for 'studies' and not for selling?

Do all surfaces work well? Paper? Canvas? Board?

All advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Soap
