Pastes, such as Molding Paste, offer artists a wide range of possibilities for achieving different effects and expressions in their artwork. When used in conjunction with acrylic colors, they expand the working properties and creative potential of the artist.
Unlike gels, pastes are opaque in nature because they contain fillers like Marble Dust or other substances that create a white or clay-tone finish. These fillers give pastes a variety of textures and properties, allowing artists to create unique surfaces in their artwork. The opaque quality of pastes adds depth and visual interest to the final result.
Molding Paste, specifically, can serve multiple purposes in painting. It can be used to create foundations for artwork, either by adding texture over a smoother surface or by smoothing out a textured surface. This versatility allows artists to control the level of texture in their paintings, creating either highly textured surfaces or achieving a smoother appearance.
The absorbent qualities of Molding Paste make it suitable as a ground for various painting and drawing media. It provides a surface that is receptive to different mediums, allowing artists to work with a wide range of materials in their artwork. This versatility expands the creative possibilities and ensures compatibility with different artistic techniques.
