LiquitexProfessional Heavy Body Acrylic Paint, 2-oz (59ml) Tube, Burnt Umber

Was a Golden user exclusively. Now I also use Liquitex and Myartscape acrylics in my work. If you work in acrylics a lot you know how expensive this medium is. I also bought two sizes of Masterson's Stay-Wet Palettes. Used correctly these palettes will greatly extend your workability time. Sounds like I'm a product promoter, huh? Just an artist that likes to save money.

The product is fine for student or average painting. There are both positive and negative points. First the positive; the colors are very close to what one would expect; with Liquitex having a substantial range of color choices. The negative; the regular base or heavy base require multiple coats on most surfaces to achieve a true color, meaning, it's going to take a number of coats of the paint to get the desired affects or true color. Perhaps this is good if blending colors or fading; but if you're looking for a fine line or have an area which requires a strong color; be prepared to use a lot of paint and multiple coats. Buy it again? Eh, I've found other products with a higher pigment content and about the same cost.

I enjoy 3 brands of professional acrylic paint, and this is one of them. I happily use Liquitex, Golden and Matisse professional /heavy body paint, but one advantage with Liquitex is its packaging. The cap is easy on and off, and doesn’t lend itself to gloppy paint stuck in the cap. And, if you’re very organized (me, not so much) there is a hole in the end of the tube which you could use to hang it up by.

As an artist, I use a ton of paint. Liquitex has always been a go-to paint for me. I was very pleased with this jar of paint, which was sealed under the cap. Upon removing the seal, it was filled completely to the top. I use white more than any other paint, and I will definitely be purchasing this jar again.

Love these paints and they go a long way. So even though they're a bit more pricey for craft projects they require far fewer coats than do the regular crafting paints. For portraits and scenery they're excellent and mix well. My ONLY complaint is the packaging as they used to have stronger tubes and it was easier to determine the color from the packaging. I've had two tubes break at the top when twisting the cap off and I keep my covers and threads clean so no good reason for that to happen.

This is the good stuff for adding the iridescent shine, although it's a bit of white so it lightens the base color. But I've also been able to make my own metallic colors with this, a little of the graphite and the color I want.I'm a fan of heavy body paints and this does not disappoint. Itdoesn't make my paints too runny, though it can be thinned with a little water, which will add to the longevity of your paintI'll be looking to order a full size one next time.

I thought I was ordering a green paint, but the initial starting point had a picture of this Dioxazine Purple. Clicking on that icon I reviewed other colors of paint until I found the one I wanted and selected it. Apparently, I didn't look close enough at the shopping cart to notice that the wrong color of paint was there. I will probably never use that tube of Dioxazine Purple paint because I have other smaller tubes of the same thing so I'm just stuck with it. I think the selection method was either too confusing or in error. Thanks Amazon.

Used for my Oyster shell craft and it was lovely and smooth to work with and covered very well.

Liquitex is my favourite brand for acrylic paint. Important: study carefully the product description to know what you are buying. I personally only buy single pigment paints, and Liquitex is very good about documenting the pigment used and the characteristics of the pigment - transparency, lightfastness and series. Beware that prices can vary significantly, so check prices on a regular basis since there are sometimes good deals - saving approx. 30% of the recommended price.Otherwise: if you want your work to last and colours remain stable, stay away from cheap paints: they use cheap pigments which have poor stability and they also put less pigments in the mix, which ends up being a waste of money.

I love this colour from Liquitex. Their heavy body acrylics are superb quality and my favorite acrylic paints. It doesn't photograph well but it's one where a touch against a contrasting colour really sings, and though you can mix similar colours I think it's worth having on your palette whatever your style.

I really like these Liquitex heavy bodied acrylics for their creamy texture and the easy-to-use tubes. They are usually slightly cheaper than other artist-quality brands and I find myself coming back to them again and again. The only slight criticism is that they do dry darker, but most brands do this to some extent. Good to be able to get this next day from Amazon when you’ve run out.

This arrived promptly as was exactly the same shade as shown.It goes on nicely and has good depth. I prefer plastic tubes over metal as the paint is easier to extract and the top doesn't get all claggy.Always a great quality brand.

Ok so I was painting my first mural and had no idea what to do after I’d painted the larger areas in walls paint. so after some research came across these. Pre warning you will need flow aid which is easy to use and you’ll be thankful you used it but my God are the colours gorgeous and everyone wanted to know what white I used as it took one or two coats to be totally opaque on black cannot recommend these enough remember the flow aid though!
