Product Description An opaque off-white multi pigment color named after the traditional scraped animal skin, used for writing for over two millennia. The word parchment evolved from the ancient Greek centre of parchment production, Pergamon. This is high viscosity, pigment-rich professional acrylic color, ideal for impasto and texture. With a high concentration of lightfast artist-quality pigment and a satin finish, Heavy Body Acrylic gives you rich, permanent color, with crisp brush strokes and knife marks.
