Excellent Product Feb 24, 2009
By Sundae I am purchasing paints for my mom, and was looking for the brand that i used to use- I have painted MANY MANY pictures with Galleria paints. This set has a great variety in colors, and you really dont need anything more than this besides a nice big bottle of white for mixing colors, etc. You can make any color you could need with this set, and the paint is excellent. I would reccomend this paint.

among the better student-grade acrylics Oct 29, 2011
By Santoku, Mr.
Galeria is Winsor & Newton's popular lower-priced line of acrylic paint (i.e. student-grade as opposed to professional-grade). Their professional grade is called 'Artists' Acrylic'. Galeria are medium viscosity - not as thick as high viscosity acrylics or oils, but thicker and more brushstroke retention than craft paints. They dry to a satin finish.
I like Galeria - the pigment load is very decent and the colors are bright. In fact, color-wise there is surprisingly little difference with professional grade acrylics. But the downside is opacity: the colors that should be reasonably opaque (such as the Cadmium Hues) are not very opaque. To be expected since these use inexpensive substitute pigments for some of the colors - like other student-grade artist paints do. The transparent Galeria colors, as well as the earth colors are more than adequate. I don't like the caps on the paint tubes, as the shape doesn't offer much grip, but that is true of most other brands/lines of tubed artist paint.
This 10-color set is reasonably well balanced in terms of mixing ability of the included colors - there's not much you couldn't do with these 10 colors. Another nice thing about Galeria is that if you like this set, you can buy the colors individually in much larger sizes (in tubes and plastic squeeze-jars) when you need to replace an empty tube.
