The paints and media developed by Liquitex are professional grade and are synonymous with Quality, Colour Permanence, Stability and Longevity. I have used all of the mediums here from virtually the time of their inception – for well over 30 years.

I once purchased a large roll of Canvas that was traced to this German firm.

The golden age were the years when the Karmai Festival was at it’s height in the late 70’s and early 80’s.Tragically, today you wouldn’t even know that such a giant worm had ever existed.
