How Does Water-Based Pigment Work With Acrylic Resin?

Water-based pigments are a popular choice for artists working with acrylic resin. Due to their compatibility and ease of use. Acrylic resin, being a water-soluble medium. Can easily be mixed with water-based pigments. Without compromising its consistency or drying time. These pigments typically come in liquid form and are made up of finely ground particles suspended in water. When added to acrylic resin. The pigment particles disperse evenly throughout the mixture, creating vibrant and opaque colours. The amount of pigment used can also affect the opacity and intensity of colour achieved. Unlike oil-based or solvent-based pigments. Which require specific mediums for blending and diluting. Water based pigments can be easily thinned out with just plain water. These types of pigments tend to dry quick when applied to an absorbent surface. Such as canvas or paper. This makes them ideal for creating layered effects. Building up multiple shades within one painting session.
