Nova Colors texture paste is an opaque, heavy-bodied acrylic texture paste designed for creating defined, sculptural, and moldable textures. Ideal as a texture paste for canvas, it provides artists with the versatility to build unique, dimensional effects in acrylic painting and mixed media art.

This acrylic texture paste combines acrylic polymer, mineral powder, and specialized additives. It can be used with a palette knife or brush to easily shape raised patterns, natural ridges, or structured surfaces. It also effectively fills surface gaps and serves as a smooth base for further painting.

Enhance your art by mixing this texture paste for acrylic painting directly with Nova Color acrylic paints to create tinted effects. Its also perfect for creating vibrant, colored textures in your artwork. Artists frequently use texture paste for art projects that involve layering paper, fabric, or found objects, expanding the possibilities in mixed media creations.
