About the product

Liquitex BASICS Acrylics

An optimal choice for the beginner painter, and for art students.

Liquitex BASICS are formulated with sufficient pigment to perform with quality results at an affordable price-point. These BASICS paints offer ideal working properties, and use fewer resources as they do not maximise the pigment load.

Use these paints to create murals, large format works, and for experimenting and learning acrylic painting. 

Customers praised this acrylic paint for its "great texture and coverage" and reliability. Many highlighted its versatility for gel plate printing, backgrounds, and layered monoprints. Shoppers appreciated the "brilliant colour" options and mixing capabilities. One customer noted it's "not great for block printing." Overall, highly rated for quality and value.

Great results

I have used unbleached titanium white for a last pick up layer of a layered mono print on a gel plate and it works well with every colour palette I choose to print.
