Heavy Body Professional Artist Acrylic Color, previously referred to as High Viscosity Acrylic Color, has an exceptionally smooth, thick and buttery consistency. Because it’s so thick, it retains crisp brush strokes and palette knife marks, making it perfect for impasto, mixed media, collage, and printmaking applications.

Heavy Body Acrylic Color combines excellent handling and blending characteristics with increased open working time. Its high pigment load produces rich, brilliant, permanent color. Water soluble when wet, it is flexible, non-cracking, non-yellowing, and water resistant when dry.

Liquitex Heavy Body acrylics are great for my needs. Mister Art has very competitive prices and fast shipping.

Rated by: Donald M. in Eaton, OH

The best paints

Rated by: Donald M. in Eaton, OH

It's nice to get the best at the same or lower price than the rest.

Rated by: Dundeee N. in Santa Cruz, CA

Heavy body, nice satin finish. Dries fast.

Rated by: Erik A. in Winona, MN

I love liquitex for its phat texture. It starts out so thick, but it's easy to thin it down with a variety of media, including water. Even thinned out, it retains its intensity, but it can also be added in tiny doses to water, for a glaze-like effect. It's the acrylic I buy when I buy acrylics.

Rated by: Jacqueline P. in COLORADO SPRINGS, CO

My introduction to art over 30 years ago was with Liquitex Acrylic Paints. I've tried other brands over the years, but for quality and price, I prefer Liquitex over all that I have tried.

Rated by: Daphne S. in Tulsa, OK

I really like the texture to the paint it's thick and easy to work with. I see why many professionals use these paints... I love them.

Rated by: Nancy L. in Greenfield, TN

Great paint, great consistency.

Rated by: Donald M. in Eaton, OH

The best coverage. Covers mistakes well . excellent colors

Rated by: Felice K. in Buffalo, NY

Great prices, great paint!

Rated by: Charlotte D. in Hickory, PA

I have tried different acrylics but Liquitex gets my vote hands down.

Rated by: Margaret C. in Red Oak, TX

After deciding to try the heavy body acrylic, my first thought was of Liquitex and of course it was like the rest of their products - superb quality. So smooth and creamy and easy to work with.

Rated by: Melissa R. in St Paul, MN

I have used hundreds of tubes of Liquitex over the years and I am always pleased with the consistent quality of their paints.

Rated by: William P. in Murrieta, CA

Really enjoy these acrylics. They work fine for all my fine art work. I use them with the Golden and Stephen Quiller brands and they all mix together with no problems.

Rated by: Kelly P. in Spokane, WA

Worked out wonderful for what I needed it for. The color was true to what is stated. I painted a few pictures for my new home to match painted walls and new bedding! THANKS for the great low price too! =)

Rated by: Jennifer D. in Corona, CA

These are the best quality acrylic paints that I have used. I love the richness of color and the thickness of the paint. It is great paint. Professional quality.

Rated by: PAUL R. in Urbana, OH

Having tried other brands, I find Liquitex always gives me the results I am looking for. I would recommend them to anyone.

Rated by: chuck b. in santa barbara, CA

Good product, prompt service. My only issue is that it would be nice to have all the different sizes grouped together, along with the color swatches, as some of your competitors do

Rated by: Thomas G. in Haymarket, VA

Great prices and terrific service.

Rated by: James g. in Jacksonville, FL

I was very pleased with my order. I received it in a timely manner, and noticed the extra care Mister Art used in the packing of my purchase. Each tube of paint was tapped so the caps would not come off. I will definitely buy all my art supplies at Mister Art.

Rated by: Robert L. in Hamilton, TX

this is an amazing paint. I didn't realize there could be such a difference in paints. The color is much more vibrant, more like oils, and you use much less; this more than offsets the slightly higher price of the student paints.

Rated by: Kelly C. in Charlotte, NC

I love these paints. Vibrant colors, great prices.

Rated by: Robert L. in Hamilton, TX

FANTASTIC.. I HAD BEEN USING A STUDENT GRADE OF PAINT AS IT SEEMED TO BE LESS EXPENSIVE BUT IT WAS FALSE ECONOMY, THE HEAVY BODY PAINT IS MORE VIBRANT AND GOES MUCH FURTHER, COSTING LESS IN THE LONG RUN

Rated by: Linda R. in St Helena, CA

Great classroom paint! Colorfast, durable and student friendly. My paint arrived promptly. Misterart rules in my classroom!

Rated by: reatha w. in Myrtle Beach, SC

Lquitex always delivers. Good viscosity and rich color. And Mister Art prices are excellent also.

Rated by: Cheryl P. in The Woodlands , TX

I used these paints with my elementary students. The paints are soft and creamy, easy to squeeze from the tubes, and the wide lids are easy for small hands to open and close. I will use this brand again.

Rated by: Devon N. in Valley Springs, CA

This product has been the backbone of my work for years. The consistency makes it adaptable to multiple uses, and the brilliance of the colors is hard to beat. It is also a great value. What more could you ask?

Rated by: Reatha W. in Murtle Beach, SC

Liquitex paint performs the way you expect good acrylics to perform. The heavy body provides good coverage. You don't have to keep applying paint and the color is rich and accurate. The order was filled and shipped promptly. I love Mr. Art!!

Rated by: Mary S. in Redding, CA

absolutely the best acrylics I've ever used. Now, I use only Liquitex products. The prices here at MisterArt are also without parallel.

Rated by: Rebecca H. in Washington, DC

Great! They arrived on time and in good condition. No complaints.

Rated by: Anatoly S. in Washington, DC

This product has the right qualities (excellent consistency, versatility, durability and permanence, as well as ease of use) to be one of the best paints in Acrylic painting. The great price on Misterart.com is also important!

Rated by: lisa m. in cincinnati, OH

I hadn't used this paint in a while and decided to order some for a new series of paintings I was doing. I was amazed and delighted with the huge selection of colors! I was able to whip the paintings out because I had so little mixing to do. The colors I needed were all available. Nice paint, great selection.

Rated by: Danielle C. in Sharon, MA

I LOVE these acrylics. I've bought acrylic paints so many times that just weren't thick enough for the effect I wanted to create. The colors are beautiful and the paint is top quality.

Rated by: DANIEL B. in SAN DIEGO, CA

GOOD PRODUCT, QUICK DELIVERY

Rated by: Laura S. in Austin, TX

Just wanted to give a thumbs up on the prices and variety of colors.

Rated by: ines Miller - Timeless Memories T. in Menifee, CA

Of the several different brands of acrylic paints I have used, Liquitex is by far my first choice. It creates a nice shine, especially when used with the Liquitex heavy gloss gel medium. I love this product and would recommend it to anyone who is serious about painting with acrylic paints.

I can always depend on Liquitex for fine quality acrylic paint, with wide range of colors from which to choose

Rated by: David L. C. in Naples, FL

Liquitex has proven once again it's one of the best suppliers of Acrylic Paints. I retired for the second time and I finally got some time to paint. The last time I did any painting, was about twenty (20) years ago. I found my ol paints and equipment. Much to my surprise, my Liquitex paints still had the same consistency and vibrant colors as any of the new supplies I purchased just recently. I will use only Liquitex.

The BEST paint, great for texture, blending and overall natural look.

Rated by: Die H. in Sandwich, MA

Simply the best. I tried another brand and regretted it. Great consistency and mixability and a large range of colors. Can use them thick or thin, always good results.

Rated by: Jann M. in Greenbank, WA

As always,Liquitex provides a TOP quality product at a reasonable price. You can count on color and consistency from batch to batch, year to year. The packaging is durable enough to keep little used colors for years, and stand up to the abuse of favorites. I like everything about this product.

The above description of the Liquitex Acrylic paint is exactly as represented. I purchase multi jars at a time (237 ml). I use nothing else. Reliable and smooth as silk application. I have yet to be disappointed with the product.

Rated by: Mary S. in El Segundo, CA

I find Liquitex, high viscosity, the best ever! The colors are exacting, the texture and body wonderful. The Liquitex speciality line, such as "cracked ice" makes it possible to do New Century work like none before. Thank you for this all around terrific product.

These paints do everything I want them to and with the best results I could expect.

Rated by: Lisa L. in Beach Lake, PA

Liquitex has always been in my tool box as the pick of paints for artists, my college professors all recommend them as well. The consistency and colors are of excellent quality and superior standards. Liquitex are easily manipulated and even easier to apply. They give all works of art a true professional appearance. MisterArt.com does an excellent job at protecting the 8 oz. jars when shipped, I never have to worry about losing a product due to breakage. THANKS

I paint a lot and use only acrylic paint. Liquitex is the best paint I've used. The paint has a wonderful consistancy, its very versatile and it is very creamy which makes it easy to blend.

Rated by: Abbey O. in Bethany, WV

Great product!! Very nice paints, I would recommend them!!

Rated by: Kitty U. in Providence, RI

I bought a bunch of different colors. These are excellent paints when you are in a hurry and want your paintings to dry quickly. I use it to paint models. I find it to be an excellent, high quality paint. The paint in the tubes lasts a long time without drying up, too.

Rated by: Ingrida G. in Yelm, WA

These are among my favorite brand of Acrylics. I use the heavy bodied paints, and love their buttery consistency, and good pigmentation. They are heavy enough for good textural and impasto work.

Rated by: Catherine H. in Tempe, AZ

I love Liquitex High Viscosity Acrylics with their rich color range. I paint fast and thick and these are perfect for impasto. I primarily use a pallet knife and am really happy with the buttery way they spread. Liquitex Acrylics are very responsive paints.

I was amazed by how fast and perfect my order arrived. I LOVE these colours and the paint is excellent!

The absolute best! They far surpass all other brands in color intensity, texture, and overall quality!

Rated by: Pamela J. in Kensington, MD

As I am just beginning my journey into the world of painting, I am trying out many brands of acrylics, and so far this one is at the top of the list. The paint has a very nice consistancy, and quite easy to blend. The color is outstanding, retaining it's brilliance when dry. I also like the fact that it covers "errors" even light over dark. I will stick with this brand, my search is over.

Rated by: Sharon J. in Senoia, GA

Have used this product for many years and plan to continue to do so. Love the fact you can use water to thin consistency--no messy, smelly thinners. Color remains bright even when blending different shades. I have used it on different types of surfaces and have been pleased with the results every time.

Rated by: Michelle R. in St. Augustine,, FL

I have been using this product for around twenty years and I think the paints are really wonderful. The viscosity and hues are ideal for the textural buildups that I like to achieve in my works on wood. Many people who buy my work wonder if I am using oils and I say simply "no"...there are acrylic paints that give the same effects without annoying fumes...

Love these. Smooth painting. Easy clean up. Fabulous colors.

Fine quality, shipped very well

Rated by: TALI L. in CORAL GABLES, FL

In my opinion, Liquitex is the best acrylic paints on the market today. I paint with a very thick texture and the buttery consistancy of the paint is just perfect for the effect that I like. Another great quality is that the colors keep their shine after they dry, which keep the painting "looking fresh" much like an oil painting does.

Rated by: Margaret C. in Red Oak, TX

I love Liquitex paints because of their smooth, creamy consistency. They are much easier to paint with than those that are so dry. Also in their favor, is when you can find them at a favorable price, that makes the "Double the Fun".

Rated by: Ginger C. in Houston, TX

As a professional artist I have used this acrylic paint for over 20 years. The color is consistant from one order to the next. The viscosity(depth of pigment)covers well for impasto tecniques and layering of colors. It mixes well with other brands of acrylic paint and is reasonably priced. I would not reccomend the 'student grade" as the coverage is a little transparent and watery for a true oil painting effect or the build up of layers. While I have tried many different major and minor brands of acryic paint I always end up restocking with Liquitex. I would suggest: LIQUITEX ACRYLIC GLOSS MEDIUM for a final varnish. (2 coats) This preserves the depth and shine of the painting)

Rated by: Jennifer R. in New York, NY

These paints are the best! They are smooth, bright, and work well with water and mediums. And MisterArt.com has the best prices for Liquitex paints!

Rated by: Mary Marius S. in Redding, CA

The absolute best acrylics I've ever used; colors are true, maleable, easy to work with, colorfast (dosen't fade), and easy to use in a variety of techniques: from "oils" to "watercolors" and all in betweens. Will never buy else, nor elsewhere. The price here is wonderful!!! AAA+++

GREAT PRODUCT, PRICE AND VERY QUICK DELIVERY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WILL DEFINITELY ORDER AGAIN.

Rated by: Doris Cooper in Tennessee

I have some Liquitex acrylics that have been around my easel for decades and they are still workable! The caps have been trouble free which cannot be said of some brands. They do not skin over on an open palette, nor do they get watery when lightly sprayed in hot weather to keep them workable. They are my favorite. No wonder there's so many 5 stars for them. I agree!
