Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Colour, previously referred to as Liquitex 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 applications retain crisp brush stroke and knife marks.
Good surface drag provides excellent handling and blending characteristics with increased open-working time. The high pigment load produces rich, brilliant, permanent colour. Liquitex Heavy Body remains flexible when dry; the thick films remain free of cracks and chips.
These two colour collections are an ideal introduction to "the world's favourite acrylic" as well as a cost effective way to stock up on common colours. The 6 x 59ml set contains one each of Cadmium Yellow Medium Hue, Mars Black, Naphthol Crimson, Phthalocyanine Green (Blue Shade), Titanium White and Ultramarine Blue (Green Shade). The 12 x 59ml set (sorry - discontinued) contains one each of Brilliant Blue, Bronze Yellow, Cadmium Red Light Hue, Cadmium Yellow Medium Hue, Dioxazine Purple, Emerald Green, Ivory Black, Phthalocyanine Blue (Green Shade), Phthalocyanine Green (Blue Shade), Quinacridone Magenta and two tubes of Titanium White.
