So, what are you waiting for? With Liquitex Basics Acrylic by your side you can jump straight in, go for it, and see what happens. Experience the range today.
Highest quality pigments
All Liquitex paints use the highest quality pigments and go through the same rigorous manufacturing process. The only difference is that with Basics we use a lower concentration of pigment than our professional paints. For Basics, fine art pigments are selected and milled using the latest basket bead-mill technology, in the same way as Soft and Heavy Body Acrylics. Pigments are ground with tiny reinforced ceramic beads to give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness, before being added to the acrylic emulsion.
Economical
Push your budget harder with Basics. Use on their own or combine together with professional materials – if they’re made by Liquitex, they’re all intermixable. Perfect for everyday use, for sketching out preliminary ideas, for underpainting before laying down your final paint application and for covering large areas.
Satin Finish
Hanging on a client’s wall. In a gallery. It needs to stay as you intended. As with all Liquitex paints, the pigments have passed extensive tests for lightfastness. Your work will have the greatest archival permanence possible, withstanding color shifting or fading to stay vibrant and true.
Sticks to most surfaces
Use Basics on canvas, paper & board, wood & masonry, metal, styrofoam, stone & ceramics, and textiles.
Medium viscosity
Basics paints come in a single consistency across all colors - a medium viscosity that is highly versatile and easy to work with.
Range of opacities
Each color is dictated by its natural pigment character. If you look at the packaging labels, you will see that some are opaque, others are semi-opaque and others are transparent.
