Famed for their dedication to fine artistry, Liquitex introduced the world to the first artists’ acrylic colours all the way back in 1955.
Not content to stop there (as any of us would be tempted to), they’ve spent the years since innovating and expanding their selection of acrylic paints to encompass Heavy Body, Soft Body, Markers, Spray Paints and more, along with a broad variety of mediums, tools & accessories (that can be found here).
Anyway, that brings us neatly to today’s discussion... their exciting, extensive, vibrant & versatile Professional Acrylic Ink range.

Liquitex Professional Acrylic Inks
Enjoy pure, lightfast liquid colour with Liquitex’s lowest viscosity acrylic; Professional Acrylic Inks!
Ideal for flowing applications or techniques, these ultra-fluid acrylics are available in over 50 individual opaque, semi-opaque & transparent colours that dry quickly to a permanent, water-resistant finish with an attractive satin sheen.
Unlike similar inks, they’re exclusively made with finely milled artist-quality pigments with no quick-to-fade dyes. Extensively tested for lightfastness, only pigments rated ASTM I or II are used for true colour purity & the greatest possible archival stability, whether at home or in an exhibition space.
Each 30ml toughened glass bottle is designed to withstand the clumsiest of hands & includes a secure lid with a convenient, easy-to-use dropper for precise applications.
