Description
Kusakabe Aqyla Alkyd Resin Paint is an innovative, water-based artist paint from Japan that combines the best qualities of acrylic, oil, and tempera. Named from Aqua + Alkyd + Tempera, Aqyla is designed for maximum versatility—allowing artists to work seamlessly with both water-based and oil-based techniques.
This unique water-borne alkyd resin offers the rich handling, depth, and luminosity of oil paint while drying quickly on the surface like acrylic. Beneath the surface, it remains slow-drying, giving artists extended control for blending, layering, overpainting, and retouching.
Aqyla adheres easily to a wide range of surfaces, including canvas, paper, metal, and glass—making it ideal for mixed media and experimental work. Formulated with high-purity pigments and no fillers, it delivers clean, vibrant color with excellent durability.
Environmentally conscious and artist-safe, Kusakabe Aqyla contains no lead, mercury, or cadmium, and has low formaldehyde content—making it a safer choice for both artists and the environment.
