Liquitex Professional Heavy Body Acrylics are high-viscosity acrylics formulated for bold color and precision handling. Formerly known as High Viscosity, this line features a thick consistency that retains crisp brushstrokes and knife marks—ideal for impasto, layering, and textural work.

High pigment loads deliver rich, permanent color with excellent lightfastness, while a low-odor acrylic resin base offers increased open time and a smooth working experience with minimal wet-to-dry color shift. The paint’s strong surface drag allows for controlled blending and expressive mark-making using brushes or knives. It’s equally suited to traditional painting, mixed media, collage, and printmaking techniques.

When dry, paint films remain flexible, non-yellowing, water-resistant, UV resistant, and pH neutral. Available in a range of versatile sets, Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylics are a great choice for both beginners exploring acrylics and experienced artists seeking professional-quality results.
