ARTEZA Gouache Paint, 60 Colors, 12ml, 0.4 US fl oz Tubes, Water-Based Paint for Canvas and Paper, Art Supplies for Professionals, Students, and Kids

I LOVE these paints. When they first came, they were in these plastic deviders and each one was a cute color palette. (The first pic, each row of 5 was one of the pre made color palettes. Was the same order that came in the box) the paints are in generous 12 mil tubes and has pigment info and lightfastness. Their are some single pigment colors but all the colors are made from 18 different pigments so i dont recommend too much mixing. If you want to put them in pans, they dont crack too much however i found I prefer to use them out of the tube as i like the consistency better. But I definitely recommend these because they are nice and opaque and you dont have to use a ton to get even coverage. Its oveRall a really fun set.also, this set includes all 12 metalic colors.

Beautiful colors smooth right out of tube easy to thin down with a little water.

Great range of colors but I would have preferred larger tubes and a fewer colors - I can mix to get various shades but the basic white, black, brown etc are important for large paintings. The quality of the paint isnt the issue, but the tubes are more like sample sizes.

My daughter needed this paint for one of her college classes. Easy to use, blends well and looks professional.

Love the possibilities meaning gouache can be applied very heavily or it can have a wonderful opaqueness about it. Beginners will love this as it is very easy to use! I am a gouache beginner.

Ive enjoyed using Arteza Gouache paints and like the array of colors. I however have one complaint concerning this product. The tubes are small but a little bit goes a long way. I have had problems with some of the tubes where I can not get the caps off and in trying to do so have twisted the small metal tubes as they are not that rigid. I also have noticed once you use the paint clean off the neck before putting on the cap or it may be difficult to get off!

I am loving the the colors and quality of these paints more than I thought I would. This is my first set of gouache paints and I am loving painting with them. I mix in some acrylics as well and they blend together perfectly. I think gouache is great for mixed media paper and paper canvas. I loved them so much that I bought a set for my mom. She normally paints with water colors but she is loving them too.

Would love bigger tubes

The box arrived slightly damaged front when outside. Inside, it was another story. It looked like the set I received had been used. Most of the top-layer tubes were crumbled; one of them had been opened or leaked out and the paint was everywhere. The side tabs of the top trays showed also some damage being crumbled and even rip in places but the tray themselves were fine (hence my wondering if this set was second hand and repackaged since it looked that someone hd already pried the top level trays out). I contacted the Arteza, the seller, four days ago but I have heard back at all. So sad.

Im an oil and acrylic painter with many years experience and quickly learned that you get what you pay for when buying paint. Im also a former college painting instructor that had to do demos with student grade paint and it was sometimes an exercise in frustration. But gouache is something I just dabble with - mostly using it for studies - so when the Arteza gouache Prime Day offer came up I bit, figuring that if it were a total disappointment I could give it to my granddaughter. I have the good stuff (Winsor and M. Graham) but I was tempted by the fun range of colors, the metallics and the price, which was so great! So far I have been pleasantly surprised with the opacity, pigment and texture of the Arteza gouache. The only thing I could recommend is that they need to include more white. To be fair, you do get two tubes, but to really take advantage of the colors provided I feel you would need a couple more tubes of white I had big tubes of white gouache at home already so it doesnt affect me, but this is meant to be a standalone set with no open stock.
