Golden: Pioneers in Acrylic Innovation

Golden Artist Colors has been at the forefront of acrylic paint development since 1980.

Golden offers artists a wide range of high-performance paints and mediums. Founded by Sam Golden in New York, the company has earned a reputation for producing professional-grade acrylics that deliver exceptional colour and texture.

Golden Heavy Body Acrylics are known for their thick, buttery consistency, which provides excellent coverage and retains brushstrokes, making them a favourite among artists who value vibrant, highly pigmented colours.

For artists seeking a more fluid consistency, Golden Fluid and High Flow Acrylics offer the same pigment strength with a smoother texture, ideal for washes, fine details, and glazing. Golden SoFlat Matt Acrylic is the most opaque, self-levelling, and matt paint from Golden.

Golden Open Acrylics are a unique acrylic paint range with a prolonged drying time. This means they are workable for a similar length of time as professional oil paint, with the benefit of not having to use solvents.

In addition to their acrylic paints, Golden is recognised for their range of mediums, gels, and pastes. These allow artists to modify the texture, sheen, and transparency of their work. These products make Golden’s acrylic system one of the most versatile on the market, enabling artists to customise their paintings with precision and creativity.

Golden’s ongoing commitment to research and development ensures their paints and mediums continue to meet the evolving needs of contemporary artists. Read about The Story of Golden Heavy Body Acrylic Paint on Jackson’s Art Blog.
