FAQ

What paint do artists use?

Acrylic paint is one of the most popular paints used by artists, because it’s cost-effective and can be used on a variety of surfaces. But oil, watercolour and gouache paints are also commonly used.

What is the difference between craft paint and artist paint?

Compared to craft paint, artist paint has a higher pigment density. This means artist paints will give you better coverage, vibrant colours and better results when you mix colours. 

What is artist quality paint?

Artist quality paints have a high concentration of pigment and are designed to withstand chemical changes from exposure to the sun, water or air. There are also a wide variety of colours available.
