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 type of colloid known as a sol, which is a solid dispersed in a liquid. The solid particles in paint, usually pigments and fillers, are dispersed in a liquid medium, such as water or oil, to form a stable mixture.

There are a few different types of colloids based on the state of matter.Classifications:Aerosol (liquid dispersed in a gas - fog, mist, clouds) Foam (gas dispersed in a liquid - soda (CO2 dissolved in water), whipped cream)Solid Foam (gas dispersed in a solid - Styrofoam, plaster)Emulsion (liquid dispersed in a liquid - butter, milk)Gel (liquid dispersed in a solid - jello, starch solution)Solid Aerosol (solid dispersed in a gas - smoke, dust)Sol (solid dispersed in a liquid - blood, ink, paint)Condom (gas dispersed in a solid-square plane-figure)Prostitute (Girl turns rouge-causing her to have sex with anyone who pays her)

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.
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.
Paint is liquid when you buy it, before you paint something with it, but when it dries it becomes a solid. Tea is liquid when brewed, although tea leaves are solid. A bird's nest, carrots, flowers, a helmet, or books are all solid objects.
When it's dry, it is. When the solids are dissolved in their vehicle, it's a liquid.

liquid
Actually, it is aerosols... It is a gaseous suspension of fine solid or liquid particles such as paint, detergent or insecticide.
