Golden Open Acrylic - Naples Yellow Hue, 5 oz. Tube

Golden Open Acrylics offer an escape from the fast drying characteristics of traditional acrylic paint, allowing artists to explore a wider range of techniques such as portraiture and landscape painting that rely on softening, shading, glazing, and creating fine detail. Open Acrylics resist skinning while remaining wet on the palette or canvas for an extended period, allowing them to be used for en plein air, monoprinting, and screenprinting applications.

Open Acrylics may be blended with other Golden Acrylic Colors, Mediums and Gels, with the open time of the resulting mixtures being proportionately reduced. To maintain the maximum working time of Golden Open Acrylics, use Golden Open Acrylic Mediums and Thinner.
