Since developing the first water-based artist acrylic paints in 1955, Liquitex has focused on providing all of the tools needed by the professional artist. All Liquitex products are formulated by a unique team of chemists and artists. This combination allows us to make the most versatile ranges of intense, highly-loaded, permanent colors possible. Liquitex is the only acrylic paint brand to offer four uniquely different ranges of professional acrylic color to suit the needs of the artist. That in mind, range-specific handling characteristics are established so that each Liquitex paint feels just right - never too sticky or slippery. The low-odor acrylic resin base represents the latest in acrylic resin technology, offering increased open time and producing colors of great clarity. The paint films are highly flexible, durable, non-yellowing, UV resistant, water-resistant, and pH neutral when dry. All Liquitex Professional Colors can be intermixed with each other and Liquitex Mediums. Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Acrylic Paint, previously referred to as High Viscosity, has a thick consistency for traditional art techniques using brushes or knives as well as for experimental mixed media collage and printmaking applications. Impasto (thick) applications retain crisp brush stroke and knife marks. Good surface drag provides excellent handling and blending characteristics with increased open-working time. High pigment load produces rich brilliant permanent color. Visit our Liquitex Storefront for full product assortment.
