Liquitex Modeling Paste, 250ml Tube

BASICS mediums & Varnishes are specifically designed for students and artists who are in need of reliable quality at an affordable price. These mediums, when mixed with acrylic paint, allow for adjustments to the paint's characteristics, texture, and appearance. They offer the ability to enhance the paint flow, add texture, and modify the overall working properties of the color. These mediums contain acrylic resin, which helps to maintain or enhance the stability of the paint film and can be used in varying amounts.

One of the mediums offered is a thick acrylic putty that can be used to create texture on rigid surfaces and form 3D shapes. Once dried, it has a hard, "stone-like" opaque white matte finish that can be sanded or carved. This putty can be used on its own, mixed with color, or painted over once dry using acrylics, oils, watercolors, graphite, or dry pastels.

To apply this putty, it can be done with a knife or tool, or mixed with acrylic color to create a tinted paste. For creating sculptural textures, it is recommended to build up thin layers, allowing each layer to dry before adding another. To prevent shrinkage cracks, it is advisable to cover the putty loosely with plastic wrap while drying.

In conclusion, BASICS mediums & Varnishes provide a versatile range of products that cater to the needs of both beginner artists and seasoned professionals. With the ability to customize paint properties and create unique textures, these mediums open up a world of possibilities for artistic expression.
