Talens Art Creation TALENS Gouache Set 24/PKG, Blue/Green/Pink/Purple/Yellow, One Size

Tenía ganas de volver a usar gouache y tener una gama un poco más amplia de colores. Estas son perfectas y baratas. Algunos colores son un poco más transparentes pero se arregla con dos o tres capas. Sin duda las volvería a comprar.

I got these for practice and to try out the medium again. These may be student grade gouache however, they're very vibrant, matte and opaque! With 24 colours, it's perfect for beginners! They reactivated easily and made lovely, watercolour-type washes. There wasn't any issue with smell or mould either. However, they aren't light-fast so I'd recommend sticking to sketchbook work than selling completed pieces when using this. For the price, amount of colours and opacity, these are a perfect beginners set for practice or for school. I'd recommend a few things if you're starting out with this set: - Open the tubes vertically, with the lid facing upwards. I found some of the tubes to be quite pressurised so the paint spews out a little bit when you first open it. This prevents the paint from being wasted. - Swatch them before use. Some of the colours dried slightly different to the packaging. Plus, you get to feel the medium before you make a piece. Also the paints, straight from the tube, are slightly tacky in texture; don't be put off by that. Adding a tiny amounts of water will help loosen it. - Mix the paint fully before swatching. Some of the pigment had separated from the binder when I first placed them onto the palette. I'd recommend doing this with a damp brush. - Use thick paper (e.g. watercolour or mixed media paper) as it'll help absorb the water and create layers easier. Also, do the layers from thin to thick as it'll help stop the paint from cracking. - Practice mixing some of the colours. I found some of the greens from the tube to be a bit unnatural for landscapes so practice colour mixing and see which combinations suits your personal palette! - Keep them in an air tight container and seal the caps well. It'll stop the tubes from drying out from inside the tube. If it does dry out in the tube, you can always cut the tube, place it in a small jar and reactivate it with a bit of water!
