Fundamental Versatility of Liquitex Acrylic Ink
This is a detailed analysis of the primary advantages of Liquitex Acrylic Ink, crafted to be concise and easy to understand.
Liquitex
Acrylic Ink: The Ultimate Fluid Art Medium
Liquitex Acrylic Ink stands out as a top
choice for artists seeking a highly versatile, professional-grade liquid colour.
It combines the best qualities of traditional inks and acrylic paints, offering
numerous advantages:
- Archival & Lightfast: Made
with fine art pigments, not dyes. Your artwork won't fade over time,
ensuring your creations last for generations. - Waterproof When Dry: Once
dry, it's completely permanent and water-resistant. This allows for
effortless layering without disturbing previous washes, preventing muddy colours. - Ultra-Fluid, Zero Clog: Its
low viscosity means it flows smoothly without needing to be thinned.
Perfect for delicate work in airbrushes, technical pens, dip pens, and for
precise pouring. - High Pigment Concentration:
Delivers vibrant, intense colours even when diluted. A little goes a long
way. - Versatile Application: Can
be used with brushes, airbrushes, dip pens, and technical pens for
pouring, staining, or even directly from the dropper. - Intermixable: Fully
compatible with all other Liquitex acrylic products (paints, mediums,
gels), allowing for endless creative possibilities in mixed media. - Fast-Drying: Speeds
up your workflow, allowing you to build layers and move through your
process more quickly than with traditional watercolours or oils. - Transparent to Opaque: Can
be used in thin, translucent washes for watercolour-like effects, or built
up for rich, opaque coverage.
In short, Liquitex Acrylic Ink offers artists:
- Durability:
Artwork that won't degrade. - Flexibility: Works
with almost any tool or technique. - Brilliance: Rich,
pure colours that pop.
It's an indispensable tool for illustrators,
calligraphers, mixed-media artists, and anyone looking to add vibrant,
permanent liquid colour to their work.

Superior, 100% lightfast pencils that won’t fade for up to a century
Derwent Lightfast Pencils keep your artwork vibrant and unfading for up to a century. These oil-based pencils produce rich, creamy colours. Designed for 100% lightfastness, their cores resist fading and retain their hue under museum-like conditions for 100 years. All shades comply with the ASTM D6901 and Blue Wool Scale ISO 105 standards for lightfastness.
The oil-based core provides a smooth, velvety feel, making blending easy—either on paper or with a brush on canvas for a painterly look. Ideal for detailed drawing and layering, they allow darker shades to overlay lighter ones, creating sharp negative spaces. Their opacity works well on coloured papers. With the broadest colour range among lightfast pencils, Derwent Lightfast features a specially formulated oil-based core, with a sturdy 4mm thickness.
