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.

Description
Description
These genuine Chinese watercolours are made from finely ground pigments, resulting in a smooth texture. They can be applied at full strength or diluted with water. Once dried on absorbent paper, they become water-resistant when wet-mounted, but remain fully water-soluble like conventional watercolours. They mix well with both Chinese and Japanese inks. Some colours in this set are semi-transparent, while others are opaque.
While these paints are intended for traditional Chinese painting methods, they can be blended with other watercolours to create unique colour mixes. They can be reworked like standard watercolours, though it may take a bit more time due to their binder. This sturdy, almost glue-like binder allows them to endure many traditional Chinese painting techniques. Once finished, artworks can also resist wet mounting—being water-soluble and non-toxic with excellent lightfastness.
The set contains 12 tubes of 12ml (.04 oz.) each: 14 Burnt Sienna, 19 Scarlet, 25 Gamboge, 50 Chinese White, 51 Vermilion, 52 Cinnabar, 53 Rouge, 54 Carmine Red, 55 Light Green, 56 Light Blue, 57 Phthalo Blue, and 58 Indigo. Tube Dimensions: 5” x 1” x 11 1/2”
