Known for their exceptionally buttery-smooth consistency, these professional artist-grade paints offer pure pigments in a 100% acrylic emulsion.
GOLDEN’s Heavy Body Paint provides excellent permanency and lightfastness, and is also free of fillers, extenders, opacifiers, toners, and dyes.
Each colour’s formula reflects the quality of the pigment: colours with a higher pigment load will dry to a more opaque, matte finish, whereas colours that are more reactive and require a lighter pigment load will tend to dry with a glossier, more transparent finish. The gloss of each colour will vary, as GOLDEN Heavy Body colours contain no matting agents.
Customers praised these heavy body acrylics for their "deep and rich colour" with "buttery texture" that's highly versatile. Shoppers love the vibrant pigmentation, smooth application, and excellent blending capabilities. The paint works well for various techniques from thin layers to thick strokes, with minimal product needed.

Valuable turquoise
The vibrancy of this turquoise is perfect for water in a jungle setting or tropical climate. The packaging matches the actual paint and a little bit goes a long way.

Golden heavy body acrylics!
It’s no secret blues are my favourite! The golden heavy body acrylics are fabulous in all colours! Rich color saturation and very mixable. Love the heavy body and I find they can be thinned out when needed as well. Overall great paint!

CERULEAN BLUE CHROMIUM HEAVY BODY ACRYLIC
This is a nice deep Cerulean Blue Chromium. Lots of pigment. I dilute the paint with medium and a bit of water for painting skies. Makes a nice sky blue with Titanium White and nice distant mountain blues. Pretty fast setting so a touch of water... very little, is helpful. Very, very little water, lots of medium. Skies usually need two or three coats of paint and I use high quality 2" and 4" painter's brushes. Never use a cheap brush... you'll spend your time digging out hairs.

Quality paint
Smooth application and easy to blend. I've had instances in the past where mixing different brands of acrylics can have a mild undesirable outcome but using Golden paint has never disappointed me. It's virtually all I use. Some colours can be expensive yes but it's worth it. I never hesitate to get a colour I want. Besides they last a long time, for me anyway.

The blue's!
Firstly I would like to say how much I love Golden Heavy Body Acrylics! I use them exclusively. Blue is always on my palette. In particular Cerulean blue. Everyone knows what a perfect sky it makes. I have recently started experimenting with various shades of turquoise and bought Turquoise (Phthalo) it's a wonderful addition to my water, lake or ocean, palette and adds interest.
