Liquitex Acrylic Inks
High-flow water-based acrylic ink from Liquitex — pigment-rich, lightfast, and built for fine work where you need control: technical pen drawings, calligraphy, watercolour-style washes over acrylic, airbrushing, or topping up Liquitex Acrylic Markers.
Same pigments as Liquitex Heavy Body and Soft Body acrylic paints — ASTM I or II rated for 50 to 100+ years in gallery conditions. Permanent and water-resistant once dry. Works on paper, canvas, board, wood, and most non-porous surfaces with the right preparation.
Use Liquitex Acrylic Ink to refill the full Liquitex Acrylic Marker range — 2mm, 8mm, and 15mm. Pop the back off the marker, drop in 5–10 ml of ink to suit nib size, replace the cap, and prime the nib on scrap paper. Refilling makes the markers a long-haul tool, not a consumable.
Liquitex was founded in Cincinnati in 1955 by Henry Levison, the man who developed the world's first water-based acrylic paint for artists. The brand sits within the Colart group today alongside Winsor & Newton.
