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 like the paint well enough but if it was a little bit thicker I would love it. I’m just learning to paint so I will learn as I go. Update: As I learn to paint better, I think these paints are great. If I am working on a painting and want it to dry quick I just hold it in front of the fan a few minutes. I’ve learned a lot on mixing colors and creating my own style. I give them 5 stars

The color selection is UNREAL, 60 full tubes, really great pastels and earth tones. The shimmer colors add a nice glimmer to the page and pleasantly surprised me with their consistency. This gouache is much better behaved than Reeves and has stayed pretty moist in my travel palette. Its also super easy to re-wet. I would definitely recommend this set to any who wants to make a custom gouache palette or just wants to experiment with gouache without having to constantly mix colors.

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

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

I’m a beginner and I’ve done a fair amount of research. I am by no means a professional. Compared to Artist’s Loft, this product is a winner. The colors are awesome, easy to blend, versatile, & can easily be mixed with other colors to find the hue you’re wishing to use if it didn’t already come in the box of 60. Definitely happy with this purchase. The tubes are definitely smaller in size, but sometimes a little goes a long way!

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.

I love this gouache, the only thing that I would recommend is that you use it right out of the tube, as it dries out very easily, and once it is re activated, its just not the same, at all. Other than that, its great for beginners.

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 use gouache paints in conjunction with watercolors when painting. This set of gouache paints are decent for the price and comes with a really nice array of colors, including 3 different whites, 12 metallics and pearls. The pearls are absolutely beautiful and are great for highlights in watercolor or even acrylic painting. The colors are pretty rich, these go on well and blend well. The majority of the colors are rather opaque but can be thinned with water to create a semi transparent hue. These of course dry quick but can be rewetted for blending. Overall a nice set for beginners or hobbyist.

So glad I ventured into the world of gauche paint with this set! It is the first thing I reach for when I’m feeling creative.
