Mont Marte Dimension acrylic is a high viscosity fine art paint that offers artists a new dimension in painting.

This acrylic’s ultra thick consistency can be applied with brush, palette knife or shaper to create especially exaggerated texture effects.

Dries hard and holds shape while still maintaining flexibility and smooth flowability.

It can be diluted with water or acrylic mediums for glazing or watercolour techniques.

With dilution, the pigment still holds strong colour intensity. Excellent lightfastness and premium quality pigment means colour strength will stay brilliant for longer.

The DIMENSION series is available in a range of vivid colours which dry to a radiant gloss finish.
