First let me thank the first several of you who corrected me on the transparency charts on the tubes vs box although I am. Still not sure on that because even the dark colors can either be like the box or opposite of it. So I am still trying to find out for sure.
Arteza asked me to review their set of 60 tubes of gouache. I did receive them for free but they are aware that I do honest reviews. I told them I had already reviewed the 24 set but they sent it out anyway. So I thought why not do a comparison by painting the same thing twice using Arteza Gouache on one and professional artists gouache on the other. The professional gouache used was M. Graham and Winsor and Newton.
Discount code for Arteza Gouache; I am waiting on Arteza to send this to me. I will post it here.

That was a great review :) I have the Arteza gouache myself, I only use it to paint in my sketchbook, so it seems ridiculous to buy decent gouache for that. I love it because it's cheap and it makes me not afraid to mess around with it. :) When buying expensive paints I always feel like the end result should be excellent or it would have been a waste of paint and therefore money. With these paints I don't care if it turns out awful, as long as I had fun! 😁
I used to feel that way too. Over time it tends to change.
Thanks for the review Sharon, very helpful !
I love the identical paintings side-by-side as a way of doing a comparative review, Sharon. I don't think I've ever seen this method before - but it's very effective. Definitely agree with you regarding the redundant colours for landscape painters and I'll be happily sticking with my 24 colour selection - but, as you say, for 'crafters' this could be a very good buy. As regards the final paintings, to be honest I think I instinctively preferred the Arteza with their brighter yellow-green colour - but, as you say, the other version probably more faithfully reflects the true colours of nature (although I did think they perhaps looked ever so slightly chalky compared with the Arteza). There's definitely something for everyone in today's painting market, though, and videos such as yours really do assist in bringing the range to everyone's attention and helping us form our own ideas as to which products will best match our own individual needs. Thanks so much for this video and, of course, for all the others you've produced for us over the years. Oh, and I nearly forgot - great performance by Diesel in Act l of the play :-) it's always good to see/hear the little fellow putting in a guest appearance. All the best, Brian.
Thanks Brian. Ya know I believe the white made it come across chalky in the professional gouache. I think it was the camera. But maybe not. From my eyes I thought they were very similar and I agree, I kinda preferred the yellower one also!
Thank you so much for your excellent review. I really appreciate your honesty when you review products 💖
Thank you. So many people who disagree with me go off on me like I am speaking bad about their mother or something. It is crazy!
Been waiting for this video. It's finally here.
They both look great. But I tend to like the Arteza more. I bought the 60 pack about several months ago. I really do enjoy them. Thanks for the review Sharon. I haven't seen a new video in a while. I hope all is well. Looking forward to a video again one day. Happy Autumn and Happy Halloween. 🍁🍂🎃🎃🧡
It's a very personal thing. I feel like the Jeece's fine art is more buttery and professional. But all I can do is give my own opinion. I'm glad you found one that works for you. That's the important thing. I need to start stating this at the beginning of these videos. I have had people go off on me when I said I didn't like certain watercolor brands. Boy oh boy you'd think I was putting down their mother's or something! 🤣
Omg ..I love that dog . He is such a character. I was also waiting for this . I'm still messing with watercolor. I have not used this kind of paint yet curious what I might get . U are amazing sharon ♡
Oh gosh thanks so much Anna.
This is a very thorough, extensive review. I think it’s a very balance view to and mimics what I have found. They are enjoyable, fun and great for no worry painting. I do agree that the 24 set is more than enough colours. I think is going to be a fair assessment that they will not compare to the professional brands, but they are certainly better than the Reeves gouache or the other hobby/craft brands.
Things have been pretty tough here. My Hubby is prepping for the first of multiple surgeries as a result of a failed procedure back in November. So we have 6-8wks to get ready for that. Due to this I seem to have missed lots of videos here and there, but I’m trying to catch up on some! It’s so nice to see you looking a little less stressed than you had been and I hope that things are beginning to settle in your stunningly beautiful home. Hoping that your doors all turned out nice and that you are getting a chance to take care of yourself and enjoy your beautiful surroundings.
I will keep you both in my prayers. It is understandable that your hands are full right now. I haven’t finished the doors! So much to do but I will have a new building vlog coming up that will be a huge change for some.
Great review. Thanks
I got these gouache paints. I have always used W&N forever... I am not a painter but use gouache for calligraphy. I use watercolour for background and use both brands for this too... I actually like both... I have never used the DS or M. Graham but think I want to ... I am addicted to colour and just get a 'high' with colour swatches. I love mixing paint and messing with it, so Thank you for doing this comparison for us to enjoy.
If you are doing lettering to frame originals or something like that then I would recommend artist quality lightfast paint. But if you are crafting or working in a sketchbook then it really isn’t necessary. There are cheaper artist quality paints out there as well. I need to get my watercolor video done comparing all of the student vs artist brands I own. It is coming but it is a lot to edit.
I like m. Graham mostly. But found Arteza amazing for a different look. Years ago i sampled a companies matte gouache very much like this only. I would say their brites and neons stay amazingly Neon. Glad you did this.
Thanks for the input.
I use Arteza acrylics and gouache. For everyday projects and practice sketches, they are great. I have noticed more people have pointed this out. Great comparisonand review. I have only just come across your channel (I subscribed a few days ago) and I find you are a lot of fun to watch. It’s wonderful. (Your doggies on the background are so funny, they make me chuckle a few times)
Thank you. I’m sad to report my dog died July 1st. He was quite he dog though.
@@SharonCullenArt oh, tha’s terribly sad news. I am sorry. I have a dog and I know the day he goes will be devastating. I am sure he was a super happy baby. Take care.
@@KizetteandTotoro thank you so much. He seemed to be a celebrity! He had such an outpouring of love from my subscribers. It is still very hard but I think it is time for me to share the love I received from Diesel worth another dog who deserves to be loved.
Thank you Sharon. I recall reading (don't recall source.. maybe handprint?) that mfgrs are not required by law to list any opacifiers in the ingredients which chalk would be. I guess it could be my monitor but the Arteza looks more vibrant with less color shifting especially in the darks. I use MG only in gouache and I would definitely use Arteza based on what I'm seeing. Personally, I wouldn't buy a set this big especially with the MGs (about 15 tubes) I already have. BUT... there's always that.. I have my eye on the Miya set of 15 gouaches in pots... that 3 pound set in the neat palette/box. Edit: re my first sentence... after your painting was done/dry, the Artezas don't look chalky at all. Actually if comparing that only, the liightest pigments in the artist lines you used look more chalky just by comparison to Arteza. I know MG contains no opacifiers at all so if there were light MG pigments used its actually kind of shocking to me to see the difference. I would choose Arteza. I think all artist quality pigments, across the board in all mediums, are way over priced so maybe Arteza is just making less profit... always a possibility even in today's world. Thanks again Sharon. I would definitely recommend Arteza to anyone wishing to try gouache to see if they enjoy it... quality seems there and the price is great. Just an aside, I wouldn't recommend them that way in their watercolors though.
I need companies to let me review stuff....lol. Diesel is so funny! Great sketches and both look good too! Guess you are still finishing up doors now...did you get everything sorted out now? Can you unpack everything yet? Take care and be well! HAGW! 🎨💕
Thanks DeeJAy. Ha you’re funny. Still can’t put everything away but I am getting there.
Thanks for the video.
Sharon, I bought the 24 set of the Arteza. Like you said I thought 60 would be too much for my first time with gouache. Plus I'm trying to learn more about mixing colors myself. I liked both paintings. Thee one with your pro colors did look a bit more natural. Hope all is well with you. TYFS
Thanks Kim.
LOL! What's the matter baby puppy? Oh I just love dogs. Lucky you, all those delicious colors you've received.
Wow the colours are so pigmented. I love the colours of the arteaza gouache
Yes they re pigmented. After using them awhile the only difference is that professional gouache is much more creamy. I didn’t mix my other gouache well for the comparison either so they looked pretty different. But all in all it is good gouache. I will be doing another video with artless very soon.
Thank you, Sharon , for this in detail comparison .. I had started with the arteza awhile ago and think it’s just a great way for someone to start, without spending a lot of bucks... as you had said to me ( awhile ago) , I did graduate myself to mgraham and Holbein.. love them!!!
Hope you’re getting settled into your new home ...( my name is norakag on Instagram.. thanks for your “likes” and comments, there .. take care and thanks again
Thanks for your input. I appreciate and I will probably continue to get names mixed up because I have trouble remembering both but I will make a note of it.
Thank you or your review. I hear you mentiona spray which I've never heard of, making it look more like an oil painting?
Not a spray. Dorland’s wax medium.
That was very useful, thank you. I am just starting out with Gouache, I used acrylics prior to that. I purchased the 24 Arteza set (here in the UK), and I am loving this versatile medium. I will most likely upgrade as they get used, as by then I will know which colours are the most useful to me. Loved hearing your dog in background, mine wines just the same until I give him boxes to rip. Mind if he had his way it would be all the post that comes through the letter box. :) Take care.
Liz The Journal Magpie That is exactly how Diesel is too. Even when I open envelopes he barks at me because he wants to open them! Thanks for commenting. You will feel a difference in the gouache when you switch over. Just watch the lightfastness on the tubes before you buy.
@@SharonCullenArt I will thank you :)
I love my Arteza and I have made bomb stuff with it. I kinda think the other “artist grade” stuff is difficult to buy, and kinda over rated. I have a bunch of Windsor and Newton Gouache and I was unimpressed with them for the cost. I’ll be buying the Arteza again. I started with the 60, and I’ll re-buy the 60. It’s affordable and my art is mostly for reproduction. I like the chalky finish, anyway. 🤷🏻♀️
When I said chalky finish I meant “Chalk” Gouache is supposed to be matte. Not chalky. Winsor and Newton gouache is a bit harder when it dries yet reconstitutes well. I really love M Graham. That is my favorite but they still have a limited color line.
@@SharonCullenArt a bit harder... you can throw a window in with the crums lol no winsor gouache here anymore,other then their titanium white gouache wich is really good
@@SharonCullenArt Have you thought about adding gum arabic to Arteza. Basically you can add more binder (after watering down the paint) and it should make it more shiny (from what I read). I have some food grade gum arabic which is cheap as heck. Bought it to play with but haven't tried it yet. Will probably mix a bit and then add it to different paints as needed.
Interesting :D Actually, yeah, the colors are for general use not so much for landscape I think... I'm going to put my typical swatch to the window and see how they hold up after a few months
How did it go?
@@SharonCullenArt better than I thought, although red is almost gone now
I love the video, I find the professional one is a bit flat in the light quality, verses light on Aretha. I do agree it is preference. Thank you for your video
Yes part of it is that the colors in Arteza are not as realistic to nature’s colors, so they are vibrant in comparison. Also I could have taken more time in mixing my colors to try to get them closer. All in all this isn’t a bad gouache to begin on but I always recommend professional because of the texture, ease of use and moving the paint around, less streaking etc.
@@SharonCullenArt So with that said the Artezas have higher hue (ie pigment purity) ? If so then they can be desaturated whereas the expensive ones can't be made more saturated!!
I have quite a few Arteza products but not the gouache so this was informative for me. I could see that each brand have their own characteristics that depending on what your project was would work the best. I think the Arteza gouache would be great for more craft like projects. The bright colors would be fun for florals, mandalas and greeting cards. Younger anime artistswould do well with the Arteza too. The professional paints are just that PROFESSIONAL. Their colors have been developed over years with traditional pigments. The consistency of them is nicer and the purity of color great. I have professional watercolors and acrylics I hard for my professional work. But I did like Arteza's bright colors and I wanted to support an American company so I bought Arteza acrylics. I really like them for my more craft like projects. I get a near professional look without the expense. I don't have to worry about the more serious aspects like lightfastness. Thank you for doing your review. I hope that as time goes on Arteza will refine their products. They have sent various products to several CZcams artist to both advertise and I believe to get honest feedback. Oh BTW, your painting skill is so wonderful you could paint with mud and have a great painting!
Thank you Cheryl.
Arteza products are made in China the corporate office is in the US. I use the iridescent gouache its pretty nice for highlights in watercolor painting.
How are light transparent? There's full box on the tube printed in black because of light label and full box on the packaging printed in white because of black background. And then you show a swatch card with lights completely covering the black line and I've seen in other videos they are pretty much titanium white with added pigment. So how they are exactly?
I am unsure what you are asking for. I showed how transparent they are when I showed the card. Each one is different. I did another review video on gouache where I did this only and you can watch it. As far as labeling goes, even darker colors can show opposite of some of the other dark colors on tube. It has nothing to do with the color of the tube. It is printed on the color.
Please watch my Arteza brush pen review which will be posted in the next day or two and I explain it there.
PS arteza has some tubes with multiple pigments; those do tend to get muddy faster so thats one to keep in mind; but for that price you cant beat it specially if you just want to create rather than making paintings for selling.
I would just like to mention, the boxes that show opaque-ness of the paints are actually consistent. They have to print the boxes white on the box because it is black, and black on the tubes because they are white. It is the same thing. Sorry if this came off as offensive, but I couldn't get over it and decided to tell you. I'm sorry.
No offensive at all Avery. You are the second one to tell me this. I said to myself oh DUH! LOL! But then I went back to look and noted they are printed on the color strip which has nothing to do with a light tube. Dark colors will show black and some will show white. Too confusing to note. But then I contacted Eugene who told me black is transparent and white is opaque end of story
@@SharonCullenArt Honestly, if I didn't already have a few tubes of white, I probably would have also been confused. Then again, you can always test the opacity yourself.
I like the artezza painting. Of course it could be much different in person.
Yeah most do. It was a poor example. I didn’t mix the colors well and Aretha has a lot of muted colors like there’s white mixed in. I don’t like that. They aren’t as creamy and nice as Jeece Finest which are great beginner gouache. And many professionals use them. I use them as well and mix them into my artist quality paint. Actually Jeece is artist quailty Arteza is not
Hi, you are confusing the fact that its printed in black with the fact that its marked transparent, its not, its a solid box, ergo its not transparent..
Yep, I thought that but the charts on the tubes are not on a light only area. They are printed on the color not on the tube. Some colors are dark and are still black. I checked into this with Eugene who said black is transparent white opaque. Period.
want the Arteza set... but seems like its not available in germany... 🙄🥴😵💫 at least at the moment
There is another brand that is inexpensive and much creamier. Try Jeece Finest Gouache.
@@SharonCullenArt thanks for the Advice, i´ll watch out, intend to order the supplies tomorrow :D
Seems to me that the professional one looks quite chalky compared to the Arteza. But that may be due to the limitations of video.
Whit the arteaza gouache the painting comes more to life than the winsor and newton one.
What about lightfast?
I did not check lightfastness as I just received them but, on the tubes it shows +++ for lightfastness on most tubes. And they follow ASTM standards
All arteza products are student grade at best! They use very fugitive pigments, brighteners, tons of fillers and dyes.
There colored pencils, watercolors and watercolor pencils fade within just a week in sunlight. There are alot of vids on CZcams of people showing how bad they fade. Just search arteza ( product ) lightfast tests. They market their stuff as professional supplies and dance around the artist grade label. Don't waste your money on cheap Chinese made junk, because that's what it is. It's great for practice and newbies, NEVER EVER for artwork sold or displayed. Have a great day
I love arteza for sketchbook works; but for daily works i prefer my schminkcke hks designer gouache. And I was wondering,does anyone here use it> I have not seen a yt with schmincke's hks designer gouache, wich is ridiculous,bc they are awesome and smell free.
Nope I wasn’t aware they had any. Is it something new? Schminke can get more expensive in the US also. M.Graham is so good I wouldn’t want to use any other but have to until they increase the number of colors. I
the pdf at download section has an english insert as well @Sharon : Not like I would sent you a dutch one, wich would be rather silly of me,i see it is indeed still gouache but with use for airbrush. but i like m bc the normal gouache didnt do it for me
I find Arteza boring.. so I am going to splurg and buy W&N. Thank you for this!
They were okay but another inexpensive brand I reviewed was Jeece Finest and their gouache is pretty good but there is nothing like artists gouache. Be careful with W&N brand and watch the lightfastness. I understand they have changed formulation (someone told me this but I didn’t verify it) on some to make them more lightfast because they had to in order to keep up.
