Made with bright, lightfast pigments, these intermixable premium acrylics blend easily — and most colors cover in one coat. The non-toxic, waterbased paints have a smooth, creamy consistency and can be varnished to create various sheens.

Use acid-free Americana Acrylic Paints on almost any surface, including wood, canvas, terra cotta, paper, unglazed ceramic, and Styrofoam. They clean up with soap and water while wet.

2 oz (59 ml) bottles.

Made in the USA.

Wow - maybe I don't need my expensive artist acrylics!

Comments about DecoArt Americana Acrylic Paints:

I've been using artist grade acrylics for a few years. I read really good reviews for Americana Acrylics on a few sites, so for the really low price I thought I'd try them. I'd been wanting to try soft/liquid acrylics for a while anyway. These lived up to the great reviews. They have excellent opacity in most colors (some colors are by their nature more transparent in all acrylic brands). The colors are bright and clean. They spread superbly on primed canvas (I prime my own canvas with standard primer and use pretty heavy weight canvas). They flow so well and are so much easier to paint with than my expensive tube paints. Surprisingly for soft paints, they will show brush strokes somewhat when using a stiff brush. The bottles are a perfect size and easy to use to control exactly how much paint to put on the palette. There are soooo many wonderful colors to choose from - not even Blick carries them all - but I was able to paint two large paintings with very different color schemes from just 10 bottles of basic colors because they mix like a dream. They definitely have a matte finish, so if you want more gloss in the final product, a top coat in the desired gloss level is needed. That's what I did in the attached example. I thought my artist acrylics were nice paints and good to work with, but after using Americana on two completed pieces, I don't even want too use my old paint at all anymore. So glad to have found these great paints for so much less money. The attached pic shows a close up of part of the project.
