Arteza Acrylic Pouring Paint Kit, 36 Pieces, Bright and Iridescent Pouring Paint, Pearlized Paint, 3D Fabric Paint, Chunky Glitter, Wood Slices, Canvases, and Foam Brushes, Art Supplies for Painters

I got this for a birthday gift for a 9 year old. She loves art and was excited about receiving it. Arteza is always my go to for art and paint supplies. The quality is of high standards but be sure to wash clothes right away if you get paint on them. They are not washable and you must do a little scrubbing to get it out. I will always order Arteza

This set is a good way to try a few different things. There’s quite a bit going on here:1. Pour paints: The Arteza metallic pour paints are GORGEOUS pigments. They are labeled as “Pouring Acrylic Colors”, which should mean they are ready to pour out of the bottle without adding mixtures. Shake the bottles and you can hear which are more liquid (ready to pour). Of the ones I’ve tried so far:- Paints Pour-ready from bottle: Titanium White, Pearl Silver White, Playful Pink, Lustrous Black, Bronze, Gold, Silver, Metallic Wine Red- Paints that need thinning (some a little, some a lot): Pearl Red Copper, Pearl Dark Green, Pearl Jade Green, Pearl Gold GreenI recommend thinning with a Pouring Medium to prevent cratering when the paint dries. Some people thin with water, but water can reduce the pigmentation—these paints are too beautiful to water down.2. Fabric Paint, Glitter Paint: I tried the 3D Fabric paint and the Glitter paint on a small round canvas included in the set. I didn’t have an end result in mind, and just wanted to try them out, so I used the sponge brush included to apply the fabric paint, then sprinkled on some extra small glass beads I had, then used a regular craft brush to apply some of the Glitter paint on to of that. The Glitter paint dried nice and clear and firmly affixed the beads to the painted surface, so it replaced the need for glue or decoupage.3. Substrates (surface to apply stuff to): there are 2 hexagon canvases, 2 triangle canvases, 2 2” round canvases, and 4 wood rounds with bark, each ~2 ½” round. Kind of an odd mix, but good to try something out of my norm. The triangle canvases are shrink-wrap packaged inside the larger hexagon canvases which leaves an imprint of the triangle on the hexagon canvas—this will show through on a painting, and the only way I see around that is to make the triangle a visible form as if a planned part of the painting. That or I’ll just use all of these just for practice and experiments.This is a good set if you don’t have a specific project in mind and want to try out a few different things or a mix of media.****** I rely on unbiased customer reviews for my own purchases, so my reviews are always honest and fair.

Wow! This kit was so much fun and it had everything needed to make great art. We especially loved the fun hexagon shaped canvas. The pouring paint flows so nicely and has great opacity, which really makes the pouring art simple. We have tried a few different types of pre-mixed pouring paint, and so far, Arteza is my favorite. Our near 5-year old had a great time adding the paints to a cup and pouring them on the canvas. Mom helped move the canvas around, and then 5-year old added more paint to the canvas to perfect her art. The outcome was incredible, and after drying we noticed that it looked a little like Rapunzel (you can't quite see it yet in the included picture). This is as fun to do for the adults as the kids.The glitter was great quality and easy to paint on. It really sparkles! The fabric paints are typical fabric paints, and the regular acrylic paint was excellent quality.The only reason I give this 4 stars instead of 5, is that I felt like some things were added into the kit just to increase the piece count and price. The foam crash brushes, while good dense foam, don’t add much value. I would have preferred artist quality brushes. The round canvases are so tiny (2.5" maybe), I can’t figure out what you could do with them, or how you could display them.So, overall, I would highly recommend this kit. It would make an EXCELLENT gift for an artist of any age.

I have never poured paint before so I wasn’t sure how to do it but I watched some videos and learned how. My first one failed but once I got the hang of it, I really like it! This is a cool kit. The pouring paints are really easy to use and I have learned there are thinners like water or white glue you can add to the acrylic so it pours easier. I haven’t used the fabric paints yet as I am unsure how to add them, but I will figure it out.This is a large pouring kit with lots of different paints and glitter paint, brushes and canvases. Wood is also included which I find really fun to pour on.I am also pouring on paper and learning different techniques. This is a cool rabbit hole. What I think could make this kit better is an instruction sheet or written instructions on the back. I learned from videos though, so that is easy to do.This is a neat kit, it could come with more pouring paints as they are so easy to work with. I like the different canvases and things to pour on that are included like the mini canvases.
