Liquitex Professional Heavy Body Acrylic Paint, Transparent Burnt Umber, 2-oz (59ml) Tube

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. Liquitex is the only acrylic paint brand to offer four uniquely different ranges of professional acrylic color to suit the needs of the artist. The low-odor acrylic resin base represents the latest in acrylic resin technology, offering increased open time and producing colors of great clarity. All Liquitex products are formulated by a unique team of chemists and artists, allowing the company to make the most versatile ranges of intense, highly-loaded, permanent colors possible.

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. Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic is known for its rich, permanent color, with the chemists using the latest basket bead-mill technology to bring out the best in every pigment. Tiny reinforced ceramic beads give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness.

This is Liquitex's highest viscosity paint, with good surface drag giving excellent handling and blending characteristics, and increased open-working time. Heavy Body Acrylic delivers intense color in the ideal consistency for a range of techniques, never too slippery or too sticky. The low-odor acrylic resin base gives increased open time and colors of great clarity and vibrancy, with minimal wet-to-dry shift. The paint film is highly flexible, durable, non-yellowing, UV-resistant and water-resistant when dry.

A flexible, crack-free result is achieved, even with thick, impasto and 3D applications, due to advanced acrylic technology which brings flexibility to the paint film, giving a durable, non-cracking finish. The pigments in Heavy Body are lightfast, ensuring your work will have the greatest archival permanence possible – at least 50 years+ in gallery conditions – with no color shifting or fading, to stay vibrant and true.
