This paint set from Golden contains eight tubes of professional quality heavy body paint, each colour has been selected to produce the widest range of colour mixes. The Classic Theory Colour Mixing Set from GOLDEN offers a starting place for artists as they begin to explore their own approach to colours and painting. The high pigment load in each paint produces rich, brilliant, permanent colour with an exceptionally smooth, thick buttery consistency which retains brush strokes and palette knife marks. Great for thick/impasto applications and painting techniques. The paint is flexible when dry; the thick films remain free of cracks and chips. The Heavy body colors retain excellent flexibility when dry, greatly diminishing the possibility of cracking that occurs in other natural and synthetic polymer systems. This means you can even use Liquitex Heavy Body paints on fabrics including Leather. Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Colour is ideal for experimental, mixed media, collage and printmaking applications. There are no fillers, extenders, opacifiers, toners, or dyes added. Because Heavy Body colours contain no matting agents, the gloss of each color will be different. Colours that tolerate a higher pigment load dry to a more opaque, matte finish. Colours that are more reactive and do not allow as much pigment loading tend to have a glossier, more transparent, finish.
