Material: Paint for decoration under epoxy and fibergloass

I want to paint a couple of small decorations on my kayak before fiberglassing. Specifically, I am inlyaing some fish on the deck, but I want to paint the eyes on the fish.

What kind of paint should I use? Enamel? Acrylic? Laquer? Other?
Should I paint after I put a sealer coat of epoxy or paint on the naked wood?

Thanks for your help.
