It's theoretically a liquid - however - it's a bit more complicated than that. Paint is a 'suspension' - in that there are microscopic particles of powdered pigments suspended in (usually) a liquid that evaporates, Once the paint is in contact with the air - the liquid part evaporates - leaving the coloured pigment behind.
Paint is a liquid.
Paint is a suspension of solids in a liquid. When the liquid evaporates, the solids are left behind as dry paint (as opposed to the "wet paint" the signs warn you about). There will be some small amount of gas dissolved into the liquid, but it is seldom of any consequence.
solid,liquid,gas
gas is compressed in a spray can.
gas: carbon dioxide liquid: paint Gas under pressure carrying the liquid which is released through the nozzle.
usually both. Ths stuff that actually sticks to your hair is a liquid, but there's also a gas to force the liquid out of the container.

Well, isn't that a lovely question! Paint is actually a liquid, my friend. When you dip your brush into the paint, you'll notice it flows smoothly and can be spread easily on your canvas. Just like the happy little clouds in the sky, paint is a liquid waiting to bring color and joy to your masterpiece.
Colloids are mixtures where tiny particles are dispersed throughout a continuous medium. Examples include: Milk (liquid in liquid) Fog (gas in liquid) Mayonnaise (liquid in liquid, emulsified) Gelatin (solid in liquid) Paint (solid in liquid) Smoke (solid in gas) Whipped cream (gas in liquid) Blood (solid in liquid, with cells suspended) Ink (solid in liquid) Marshmallow (gas in solid) Each example illustrates the diverse nature of colloidal systems in various states of matter.
