DISCOVER ACRYLIC.

CREATE WITHOUT LIMITS.

Acrylic paint is made for creative freedom. It’s water-based, fast-drying, and made up of three essential ingredients:

Pigment – This is what gives your paint its rich, vibrant color. Pigments are super-fine particles that stay suspended in the paint. They can be natural, synthetic, organic, or inorganic.

Binder – The binder is what locks the pigment in place once the paint dries. In acrylics, that’s an acrylic polymer. As water evaporates, the binder forms a strong, flexible film.

Vehicle – Water is the vehicle in acrylic paint. It carries the pigment and binder as you apply it, then disappears as the paint dries, leaving behind a durable, colorful layer.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT ACRYLIC PAINT

Not sure where to start? It all comes down to how you create. From thick textures to smooth blends, there’s a Liquitex acrylic that’s just right for your style.

Go thick with Heavy Body for bold, knife-friendly marks. Keep it flowing with Soft Body or Fluid for clean lines and smooth coverage. Want water-thin for washes or fine detail? Try Acrylic Ink. Prefer to spray? Our Spray Paint delivers a fine mist with rich pigment.

Whatever your format - tube, bottle, dropper, marker or can. Liquitex gives you the freedom to paint your way.
