My daughter paints a lot and I bought her this set and a tube set with different colors. This set will serve her (and anyone) well for base colors and mixing. There's a good deal of paint to work/play with and at a reasonable price.

I use these paints for art and crafts and for body painting. I love that there's just so dang much of it. I don't have to worry about wasting any paint. This is student quality paint and very good for budget painters.

These paints have turned out to be a great deal of fun. With my small set of "real" acrylics I am always wary of using them up. But with these huge pints of paint, I have no problem about using them because there is plenty - so I am less inhibited. I am not a professional artist, but paint for fun, and for that, these are fine.

To the previous reviewer, if you are painting on wood it is a good idea to use 2 or 3 coats of gesso first, otherwise the wood will just soak up the paint.

Anyway, these are cheap acrylics made for non-serious work. And for that, they are great.

The company required an in-person signature for a 20 dollar item. Why did I shop online again? I could have drove to a store instead of having to sit at home waiting for UPS. The paint didn't work well and the local craft store told me it wasn't a good quality to be used on wood. My savings cost me triple.
