Professional Impasto Acrylic Paint

Professional Acrylic Colour for Artists

Global Colours Professional Impasto Acrylic Paint uses artist-quality pigments and ingredients. The range suits professional artists, illustrators, scenic artists and creative studios. Apply the paint directly with a brush or palette knife. You can also combine it with compatible Global Colours acrylic mediums to change the flow, transparency, texture or finish. The paint dries quickly and forms a permanent acrylic film. Once dry, it remains flexible and water resistant.

Use the Paint Across Creative Techniques

This professional acrylic range suits:

• traditional painting;
• commercial illustration;
• realism;
• scenic artwork;
• folk and decorative art;
• textile painting on suitable materials;

Test the paint on your chosen surface before starting a large or important project. Prepare porous or unstable surfaces with a suitable acrylic ground.

Combine the Paint with Acrylic Mediums

Use acrylic mediums to adjust the way the paint behaves. Mix in a glazing medium when you want more transparency and smoother layers. Add a slow-drying medium when you need more blending time. Gels and modelling pastes help build thicker texture and raised effects. Gloss or matte mediums can change the final sheen. Follow the mixing and application directions for the selected medium.

Archival, Lightfast Acrylic Colour

Global Colours describes this range as archival and highly lightfast. These qualities help the finished colour retain its appearance over time when artists use suitable surfaces and display conditions. The paint dries quickly and becomes water resistant after drying. Its flexible acrylic film supports both traditional artwork and mixed-media applications. For the best result, protect completed work from unsuitable moisture, heat and prolonged harsh exposure.
