    A couple of years ago I did a large, commissioned mural on a piece of
    plywood that I first primed with latex paint. I used a combination of
    artist's acrylic paint and exterior latex house paint (as the original plan
    was for it to be outside).

    So far it seems to be doing okay (inside) and nothing has faded (even though
    it receives some direct sunlight through a window).

    When you say wallboard, do you mean sheetrock? I'd think, if primed first,
    like you say, acrylic and latex should do okay.
