Staedtler - Acrylic Paints
Acrylic Paints
Blend brilliant, fade-resistant color that layers thick or thins to washes
Thick-bodied consistency holds brushstrokes and palette knife marks exactly where you place them. Staedtler acrylics deliver dense pigment load in a workable texture that maintains body for impasto effects while thinning smoothly with water or medium for glazing and wash techniques. The paint develops a flexible membrane as it dries, resisting the cracking that plagues lesser formulations when built up in layers or applied thickly.
Water-soluble during application means quick cleanup and easy color mixing on palette or canvas. Once dry, the finish becomes waterproof and fade-resistant, you can layer over dried passages without disturbing underlying work or apply subsequent water-based media without reactivating the paint. This stability matters for mixed media approaches and pieces that undergo multiple working sessions.
Twelve-milliliter tubes provide substantial volume for the price point, making these paints practical for both finished work and color studies. The 12-color set covers essential primaries, secondaries, and earth tones; the 24-color set expands into specific hues like portrait pink and cerulean blue that eliminate extensive mixing for common color needs. Both sets include proper titanium white in quantities sufficient for tinting and mixing rather than forcing you to purchase additional tubes immediately.
