For nearly four decades I made my living as a graphic designer and artist.
If
there was one thing I learned it is that an artist is only good as the supplies
he or she uses.
Shoddy
pencils, low-grade paints and inferior paper can ruin a piece of art.
Golden Paints is a high-quality, paint
manufacturing company that puts out excellent acrylic paints.
When
choosing acrylic paints there are a few, important things I consider.
Golden
Artist Colors’ ‘6 Professional Acrylics’
successfully qualifies for each.
Paint
ease of use and application is important.
The 6 Professional Acrylics squeeze out in an even flow from the tubes
and spread smoothly when using a paint brush and/or a palette knife.
Colors
dilute smoothly with water and blending colors is even with no clumps or dark
and light spots.
Paints
of various colors easily blend or can be laid over each other offering complete
opacity.
Too
often acrylic paints tend to dry out too fast.
Golden Artist Colors’ acrylics keep moist long enough for blending and
manipulation. Adding a little water or
extender lengthens drying time.
The
intensity of the colors and their consistency from tube to tube is important
especially with projects requiring large amounts of paint.
After
reading up on Golden I am confident that their manufacturing and color
consistency is topnotch.
Creating
a painting with a palette knife requires paint that is easy to move about and
once dried keeps its color and texture.
Golden Artist Colors’ acrylic paints do just that.
Overall
I am both impressed and satisfied with the quality, consistency and ease of use
of Golden Artist Colors’ 6 Professional Acrylics. Thumbs up.
