Medium Violet Heavy Texture
Description
Our Medium Violet Heavy Body Texture is dramatic, and outgoing. The charm of this violet is in its amethyst coloring, great for flowers, or adding a bit of theater to a night sky. Think of an orchid, or the viola flowers, from which the word violet takes its name. When combined with Titanium White, this acrylic's deep red undertones give a wide range of shades, and is great for sculpting life like plants on or off the easel. When combined with our Acrylic Collection, the possibilities are endless.
We worked hard to nail down this color so it doesn't dry too dark. Made up of Quinacridone Violet pigments and Titanium white, we did the hard work to nail this mixture so you don't have to. The value of this Heavy Body Texture comes from its ability to stand out when needed, or stay subtle when not. We often use it in our abstract florals.
A perfect balance of Quinacridone Violet and Titanium White pigments. We add the white to give the color its characteristic undertones, to avoid homogenized color, and avoid it drying to dark. With great tinting strength, and excellent lightfastness, meaning the color wont fade with time, our Medium Violet is a notable addition to any artists palette.

4 easy steps to pipe heavy texture
1. Snip It
Cut a small piece off the bag, about 3/4 of an inch. Cut further as needed to increase flow of paint.
2. Twist it
Use dominant hand to twist the top until bag feels firm. Apply steady pressure to force air pockets outs.
3. Squeeze it
Guide the nozzle with one hand, applying pressure with the other to control paint thickness and shape.
4. Clip It
Flatten the open end and clip it for short-term storage. For long-term, transfer to airtight container.
Quality paint but would love to see better prices or loyal customer discounts.
This beautifully rich hue is breathtaking. The 3D sculptures I can create with this strong yet malleable medium are the stuff of artists’ dreams. I love every gaffrey color but quinacridone has a special place in my heart.
This color is rich and so beautiful, it can be used alone or mixed with lighter colors to create lovely variations in the flowers.
I love this paint!! So much fun to pipe flowers and create with it..
This color is so so so pretty I wish I had a never ending supply
