While other gouaches need water to ease their way, Liquitex acrylic gouache gives you a creamy, fluid texture with superb brushout, straight from the bottle. Application feels effortless and flowing, with no drag - making it perfect for large area coverage or fine detail. And because you don’t need to add water, your colours keep their true vibrancy.

The most intense colours. A flat, matte effect. No brush strokes. No cracks. No need to dilute.

Superb fluidity and application: all with a permanent, water-resistant finish when dry. This is Liquitex Acrylic Gouache.

The Acrylic Gouache formula is no exception, giving you solid matte colour without reflections or brush strokes. Because it doesn’t reflect the light, it’s perfect for scanning and mixing with digital effects – making it ideal for illustration and design work.

Acrylic Gouache pushes the opacity of each colour to its limits. Gouache is traditionally known for its solid colour, as well as its tendency to crack when dry. You get the flexibility and smooth application you expect from an acrylic, with the best opacity possible. Each colour was developed individually with a lot of time very carefully choosing and balancing the type of pigment, the amounts used, and the particle size distribution. The result is a full range of opaque and semi-opaque colours, giving you the best possible combination of opacity versus flexibility, with minimum show-through.

On a client’s wall. In a gallery. Your work needs to stay as you intended. As with all Liquitex products, the pigments in Acrylic Gouache have passed extensive tests for lightfastness. Each pigment is rated according to the American Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM), and we only use pigments rated ASTM I or II*. This means your work will have the greatest archival permanence possible – at least 50 years+ in gallery conditions – with no color shifting or fading, to stay vibrant and true.

*Some pigments, such as fluorescents, are not rated
