Review: The best black acrylic paint - As an acrylic painter for like 20 years, this is by far the best black paint for my style. It’s deep, dark, fully coating black. It’s smooth, glossy, and thick. You can add a bit of water as needed for details. I don’t mind using like cheap craft paint, for colors, but for black I need this. It’s very crispy. Craft paint black is more like grey in comparison. I tried to find a few of my paintings that had a decent amount of black in them to show what it looks like after it’s dried and on canvas. A little goes a long way and you can usually get a lot of use out of this. I have plenty of paintings with fully black backgrounds, and I do a decent amount of black outlines and I rarely have to buy more.

Liquitex BASICS Acrylic Paint in Titanium White is an exceptional product that has quickly become an essential part of my art supplies. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned artist, this paint is sure to impress with its quality and versatility. The pigmentation of the Titanium White is fantastic. It's bright, opaque, and provides excellent coverage, which is crucial for both mixing and highlighting. I've used it in various projects, from canvas to mixed media art, and it has never failed to deliver a crisp, clean white that really makes my work pop. The consistency of the paint is another winning feature. It’s smooth and creamy, making it incredibly easy to blend and layer. It holds its texture well, allowing for intricate details and expressive brushwork without losing definition. Whether I’m using it for fine lines or bold strokes, Liquitex BASICS performs beautifully. I've also been impressed by how far the 4-oz tube goes. A little bit of this paint extends over a large area, providing great value for the price. It's also comforting to know that Liquitex is a brand committed to quality and safety, with this paint being non-toxic and easy to clean. Overall, Liquitex BASICS Acrylic Paint in Titanium White is a reliable workhorse in my studio. Its quality, affordability, and performance make it a must-have for any artist. Highly recommended and truly deserving of a 5-star rating!
