PRODUCT : Golden Open Acrylic - Mixing Set

DESCRIPTION : OPEN Acrylics are a slow-drying paint with a slightly softer consistency than our Heavy Body paints. The increased working time of these colours expands their range to include more traditional techniques once only possible with oils. Thick applications can dry extremely slowly, so we recommend artists only use OPEN colours thinly (approx. 1 mm). Drying time can also be accelerated by mixing OPEN with faster-drying acrylics like our Fluid and Heavy Body colours. The slow-drying capability of OPEN Acrylics also makes them suitable for some printmaking techniques. Because OPEN Acrylics are slow-drying, painters who cover their palettes or use sealed containers have been able to use the same colours for weeks, reducing the amount of paint wasted and preserving colour mixtures for future use.

Open Acrylics are perfect for blending, softening, shading, glazing and fine detail, remain wet far longer than other acrylics, and resist skinning on the palette during long sessions at the easel.
