Pigment^Liquitex Basics Modelling Paste 250ml – Little Painter Art | Exploring the Endless Possibilities of Art

A thick acrylic putty to create texture on rigid supports and make 3D forms.

• Dries to a hard ‘stone-like’ opaque white matte finish that you can sand or carve
• Can be used on its own, mixed with color, or painted once dry
• Can be painted with acrylics, oils, watercolors, graphite or dry pastels when dry
• Can be handled like clay
• Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products – Basics and Professional
• Use on non-flexible supports only
• Apply with knife or tool
• Mix with acrylic color to make a tinted paste
• For sculptural texture, build up in thin layers, allowing each to dry
• Dry slowly by covering loosely with plastic wrap to avoid shrinkage cracks
  If cracks appear, allow to dry and fill in with another thin layer of paste
• Ensure it’s completely dry before sanding or carving
• Overpaint once dry with acrylics or most other media
• Do not use with any non-acrylic compatible media
• Drying too quickly will cause cosmetic (not structural) cracks
• Do not use on flexible supports unless mixed with another medium
• The Cincinnati, Ohio based company Permanent Pigments created Liquitex, the first water-based acrylic paint for artists in 1955. The name Liquitex stands for “Liquid texture.” The Liquitex brand has been at the forefront of paint ever since, leading the industry with a number of firsts, Gloss and Matte Meduims, Hue colours in place of more expensive pigments, iridescent acrylics and many more.
