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

Gouache is one of my favorite painting mediums, and Ive been coveting this Arteza set for months. I finally decided to order the set, and was very impressed when it arrived. The colors appear to be so beautiful and subtle that I cant wait to start using them. Ill add them to the Arteza colored pencil and watercolor sets I already own, and hopefully create many wonderful pieces of mixed media art.

These are awesome!! I am new to gouache, and it is honestly my favorite medium so far!! These paints are vibrant, and a little goes a long way. I am happy i bought these and will return to this brand to repurchase colors I run out of!!

I did a painting using gouache for the first time, and it turned out pretty well. The colors are opaque, but also can be less by adding water. I did have to experiment with water to get the desired paint consistency, but overall, I think it went well. Looking forward to more fun!

I’m a college student and I did get heavy body paint. However, I have these a try as well and they are perfect for practicing before I use my expensive paint :)

Nephew loves it

Love the consistency of the paints! My only complaint is that the actual colours don’t match the outside of the tube

Only problem I have ever had with Arteza is that they dont sell replacement tubes of any of the paints you can buy. Once the color is used up, you are SOL unless you buy a whole new set. This of course tends to make me look at other paint brands such as Golden or Turner paints.

Ive been using these for about 6 months now and I basically like them. Because of their low price, theyre a great alternative to premium gouache brands. Im using these dry from a palette. Although they crack and crumble like most gouache, they do reactivate easily and offer good coverage. Note: If I tip the palette, the little pieces of dried paint fall out of their compartments and mix together, something thats typical of most gouache brands. (My Holbein set is an exception.) As expected, these paints dont have the pigment load of a high quality paint brand like my Holbein set. I find the Arteza gouache mostly acceptable. My issues with this set is 1. The metallic colors dont have much shimmer, and 2. the color assortment is too garish and neon for my taste. I was not happy with my initial paintings because they were so bright. However, I realized that I can get great subtle colors when I mix my own colors. Thats not what I intended when I purchased these. I bought this set intending to have a good selection of premixed colors so I wouldnt have to mix my own. The mixing takes time, but Im getting better at it. If youre someone who loves bright neon colors, youll probably love this set. I would definitely recommend these to beginning/intermediate artists who want to familiarize themselves with gouache painting without breaking the bank to do it.

Good value great for journaling

these paints are amazing. i love them so much. although this is my first time buying/using gouache paint they seem like very high quality paints. they swatch nicely. some of them are meant to be more or less opaque than others and it tells you which ones are and arent as opaque and the level of opacity. at first i was concerned with how small the tubes were but then i figured out that a little goes a long way so that explains why the tubes arent huge. i would 100% reccommend any artist buy these paints. also 60 paints for $44 is a STEAL in my book :)
