Attention Liquitex! Love The Set, But.,
I really Love this set, but wish that the tubes were in 4 oz’s, instead of the ml’s that this set contains . other than that small thing, the set is first rate. i love how dark and bright the colors are and they are the right smoothness and thickness to make your own creations. so go wild and have fun,make whatever comes to mind literally. kudos to liquitex for making a fine product. like i’ve said though, just wish the tubes were bigger that’s all,because you can run out paint fast after a few paintings.
Highly Recommended.

|Purchased as a Gift,
I had these paints sent to my artist daughter in Oregon for her birthday in the hopes that I made a good choice (knowing nothing about paints). When she received them, she was thrilled. She said they were an excellent quality and the colors were fantastic.
