The paint you've previously known as Liquitex Medium Viscosity Acrylic Artist Color is now called Liquitex Professional Soft Body Acrylics.

Liquitex Professional Soft Body Acrylics were the first fine artist's acrylics sold commercially in the United States. These concentrated acrylics contain rich, pure pigments that produce intense color without opacifiers or fillers. They have twice the covering power of ordinary craft acrylics!

Liquitex Soft Body Acrylics are naturally creamy and fluid. That makes them just right for tole and decorative arts, stenciling, murals, silk-screening, calligraphy, printmaking, graphic design, sculpture, photo retouching, hard edged painting, watercolor techniques, fabric painting without heat setting, airbrush illustration... you name it! They're great for all surfaces, including wood, fabric, ceramics, canvas, or any porous surface.

New for 2016 is a special release Muted Collection, which includes five colors — Muted Green, Muted Grey, Muted Pink, Muted Turquoise, and Muted Violet. Individually, each color has a muted, subtle character. Together, the colors create a tonal palette. The Muted Collection is intermixable with other Liquitex mediums for maximum versatility.

Classic 8 Jar Set — Contains 8 colors in 2 oz (59 ml) jars, including Dioxazine Purple, Ivory Black, Naphthol Crimson, Emerald Green, Cadmium Yellow Medium Hue, Titanium White, Phthalo Blue (Green Shade), and Cadmium Orange Hue.

Color Set of 6 — This classic palette includes Cadmium Yellow Medium Hue, Mars Black, Naphthol Crimson, Phthalocyanine Green (Blue Shade), Titanium White, and Ultramarine Blue (Green Shade) in 0.74 oz (22 ml) tubes.

Iridescent Set of 6 — This shimmering set of six includes Iridescent Antique Gold, Iridescent Rich Bronze, Iridescent Rich Gold, Iridescent Rich Silver, Iridescent White, and Mars Black in 0.74 oz (22 ml) tubes.

Muted Colors Set of 5 — This collection includes Muted Green, Muted Grey, Muted Pink, Muted Turquoise, and Muted Violet. Individually, each color has a muted, subtle character. Together, the colors create a tonal palette.

Shipping Note — Due to manufacturer distribution restrictions, Liquitex products cannot be shipped to addresses outside of North America.

The Best, Sadly Online Only

By Sammy

from Hollywood, CA

Comments about Liquitex Soft Body Artist Acrylics:

I have no complaints about the product and it is the medium of my choice as a professional artist for 35 years. I've used Liquitex soft body acrylics from the time they were introduced. It's a shame that the entire Liquitex line isn't available in the brick and mortar stores as it was before they were bought out by Blick. Now one has to buy from a chart and order online, and then wait the weeks it taked for them to arrive. And it takes weeks. Gone are the days of "Oops, I'm running low on raw umber. Better make a run to the art store."

I love these paints, just the right amount of fluidity!

By Holly the Artist

from Wisconsin

Comments about Liquitex Soft Body Artist Acrylics:

I paint highly detailed paintings, the fluid quality and density of the pigment allows to a lot of flexibility. I can achieve a very smooth surface with layers of under painting, by spraying the paint with water before use, or adding an additional media, such as gloss varnish.

Superb Paints for the Professional Miniaturist

By S Cole

from Boston

Comments about Liquitex Soft Body Artist Acrylics:

I've been using Liquitex Soft Body acrylics for over 14 years, to paint my miniature wood carvings. I wanted the qualities of professional acrylics but traditional acrylics are too thick, and other fluid acrylics are craft quality. Liquitex Soft Body Acrylics have the proper color load and mixability of professional acrylics, but are fluid enough for me to paint features on faces that are only 1/4 inch high. All with non-toxicity and soap-and-water cleanup. I use the whole range of mediums, pallete spray, varnish, etc. and recommend them to all of my students, art friends and customers. I always buy from Blick. These paints are a fantastic deal from Blick, and a solid value but have much higher retail prices if you buy them in an art store. Paints last a long time but I especially recommend buying mediums and varnishes from Blick for freshness.
