Maximum Versatility

With a water-based acrylic formulation Liquitex Professional Paint Markers have been specifically developed for maximum compatibility with other Liquitex Products. Versatile enough for use on almost any surface, use together with Liquitex Heavy Body or Soft Body and finish with a Liquitex varnish for a bleed-proof finish which is both permanent and durable.

Optimized Design for Ultimate control

Liquitex Professional Markers use a proven ball and pump valve system to optimize paint mixing and flow. Available in a choice of 2mm and 15mm sizes, the nib shape provides the flexibility to achieve multiple line thicknesses and the high quality replaceable nibs ensure precision control on application.

Durability & Varnishing

The new Liquitex Paint Markers are versatile enough that they can be used on almost any surface, indoors and outdoors, from sketchbooks and canvas to brick, glass, mirrors and even plastic.

For ultimate permanence and durability, artwork created using the Liquitex Professional Paint Markers can be finished with Liquitex varnish, without the paint bleeding or moving. If varnish is applied with a brush you may notice minimal bleeding with the Fluorescent colours. To avoid this bleeding we recommend varnishing with a water-based spray varnish.

Uses and Techniques

Liquitex Professional Paint Markers offer limitless possibilities including sketching, outlining, large scale work, fine detail, underpainting and mixed media applications. The markers are also low-odour, meaning they can be worked with for longer as you don't need to worry about fumes. The precision nibs of the markers make them ideal for sketching out ideas, and the added ease of using a professional level paint with the convenience of the pen barrel means that sketches can be made quickly and with minimum fuss.

The larger 15mm nib is excellent for creating bold, sweeping strokes and also for block-colouring large areas. A large stroke of the 15mm is great for creating bold geometric shapes, particularly useful if you paint abstract forms. Ideal for creating thick strokes of colour, and with a flick of the wrist you can taper the edge to a fine point, making them very versatile for illustration.

You can use the finer 2mm chisel nib to add in fine details. They're great for adding outlines, accents and highlights to your finished image.

Products in the Liquitex Professional Acrylic system can be used for a wide range of different applications and techniques.
