Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Acrylic - Payne's Gray, 59 ml

Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Acrylics feature a thick, buttery consistency with a high-concentration of lightfast, artist-quality pigment. Heavy Body Acrylic gives you rich, permanent color that's ideal for traditional painting techniques, including alla prima and impasto textures, as well as experimental, collage, printmaking, and mixed media applications.

This professional acrylic paint is particularly well suited to retaining the peaks and textures of brushstrokes, and the mark-making of painting knives. The paint film remains flexible when dry, and even thick applications will not crack or chip over time. Each color dries to a satin finish. You can freely modify the sheen, viscosity, and transparency with Liquitex Acrylic Mediums.

Payne's Gray - This is a dark blue-grey made from a mixture of ultramarine, mars black, and crimson. It's a good alternative to painting or mixing with black, as it can be more lively. It was named after the 18th century watercolorist, William Payne, who created the mixture and often recommended it to his students as an alternative to plain black.
