“We got sent a few samples, really liked the samples, the teaching department really enjoyed that there was three different types”

 

Three consistencies. One versatile range.

X-Range is a versatile collection of acrylic paints available in three distinct consistencies - Free Flow, Standard and Heavy Body. Each offers unique working properties, giving artists greater choice and control over how they apply paint, create marks and explore texture. 

Find Your Flow

X2 Free Flow

Made to move. Ideal for fluid, expressive painting.

Smooth flowing – fluid acrylic that moves easily across the surface.

Get expressive – experiment with pouring, dripping, splattering and gestural marks.

Build up colour – create washes, translucent effects and layered compositions.

Change your tools – try brushes, droppers and unconventional painting tools. 

Matt finish – dries to a smooth, non-reflective surface.

24 colours – plenty of scope for mixing and experimenting.

X4 Standard

The versatile all-rounder for everyday painting.

The best of both – medium-bodied acrylic with a balance of flow and body.

Excellent value – versatile acrylic paint at a price that works for busy art departments.

Semi-gloss finish – dries with a subtle sheen.

40 colours – our widest X-Range colour selection.

X6 Heavy Body

Thick acrylic paint for expressive, textured work.

Thick by design – heavy-bodied acrylic that holds brushstrokes and palette knife marks.

Build texture – ideal for impasto techniques and creating raised, dimensional surfaces.

Make your mark – experiment with bold, expressive strokes and textured effects.

Semi-gloss finish – dries with a subtle sheen.

24 colours – a versatile selection for mixing and expressive painting.
