Talens Art Creation acrylic colour is a reliable quality acrylic paint based on acrylic resin. The paint has a pasty consistency, dries quickly and has a silky gloss when dry. These acrylic colours can be used both straight from the tube and thinned with water and are waterproof when dry. The colours are easy to mix with one another and easy to use due to their dosing cap.
This versatile paint can be used on almost any surface, as long as it is somewhat absorbent and free of grease and dust. From canvas and paper to plaster, board, wood, stone and cement. Since the tubes are transparent, you can easily pick the colour you want to use while painting.

Frequently asked questions
Oil colours form a greasy layer and are therefore not suitable as a ground for acrylic colours.
Acrylic Medium, Gel Medium, Heavy Gel Medium and Extra Heavy Gel Medium can be added to the paint unlimitlessly. Only the Amsterdam Acrylic thickening medium must be added in very small amounts.
The binder for both acrylic paint and acrylic mediums consists of a dispersion of acrylic resin particles in water. As long as the binder contains water, the binder is white.
When all the water has evaporated after drying, the acrylic resin particles in the binder form a continuous colourless transparent film and the white will have disappeared.
This explains why the acrylic paint colours become darker as they dry (this effect is also often called "colour shift"). When mixed with a medium, the wet paint therefore also becomes a little lighter; once dry the colour is the same as pure dried paint.
The binder of acrylic paint consists of a dispersion of acrylic resin particles in water. During the drying the water evaporates and the volume of the paint layer decreases.
For more structure and visible 3D effects, Talens supplies Gel medium, Heavy gel medium and Extra heavy gel medium, all in both glossy and matt varieties.
- The addition of Gel medium to a paint allows for a clearer brush stroke/structure.
- Heavy gel medium allows for an even more enhanced brush stroke.
- With Extra Heavy Gel medium, very distinct structures and extremely thick layers can be applied.
Furthermore, all gels, pure or mixed with paint, due to their large adhesive capacity are ideally suited to incorporate materials such as sand, sawdust, paper, wood, stone, etc. in the paint.
