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 bought this set of gouache paint to see how the Arteza brand worked compared to brands I tried before. After playing around with these paints on paper and canvas, I am pleased with the color coverage. This gouache set has a wonderful selection of colors to choose from. The colors from this set work wonderfully for me when I do manga and abstract paintings. I am beyond pleased with the brand and plan to buy a variety of supplies in the future. This brand will be my go-to for gouache paints.

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

Although the prices on Amazon are rising rapidly lately, if you shop the website vs Amazon, you might get a marginally better price. Like these gouache paints. Like their watercolor counterparts, you must add glycerin, honey, or gum Arabic to carry in a portable pallet.

Bought these for my daughter and she loved them. She found them much better than a previous $10 set she got, theyre bright, less chalky, blendable. The wide range of colors is great for someone starting out that might not know color theory or be very good at mixing colors on your own. Although, these do mix well too if you want to adjust colors. Definitely worth the bit of extra price, but still a very affordable great student grade paints.

So I loved swatching these paints right out of the tube. They are absolutely stunning. The paints dry to a matte finish which I like but they feel chalky without being chalky. I hope that makes sense. I poured them into full size pans, let them dry for 4 days and then re-wet them as I prefer working from a palette. I must say that they had to be wet quite a bit to reach the same consistency and vibrancy as if out of the tube but that’s fine. I bought them to color with my girls and they are enjoying them.

I had tried cheap-o gouache before - you know the ones I mean - and was always frustrated. This Arteza set was a game changer for me. It works so much better. I love the matte finish, and will be using this instead of acrylic paint in my journal from now on.

I haven’t used this product yet, but purchased it because of friends that already use the Arteza gouache paints and love the pigmentation, the ease of use and the results.

The gouache is easy to work with. Its highly pigmented. But the metallic colors, have little shine to it. It shows well wet. But when the paint dries, the metallic effect dissappear. Some of the colors are neon. So swatching them, before you start, would be smart. Its a good set for beginners that wants a lot of pre mixed colors.

I am so beyond satisfied with this set! I’m pretty new to painting in gouache, but these paints were so easy to just pick up and use, and the colors are so rich, vibrant, and mixable!

I love these paints for practice sketching. However I can not give them 5 stars due to the fact they mold super quick. I have waste quick a bit of paint cleaning out the mold. Otherwise I would recommend them.
