Pro VS. Student Paint // Comparing Arteza "Expert" acrylics to "Premium"
**First a note: Amazon has the Arteza Expert paint for half the price of the Arteza website currently: https://amzn.to/337aqDV I don't know if it is a sale or typo but snag it while you can if you want it!
I just saw Arteza has come out with an artist-grade acrylic and I wondered how it compared to the student grade (AKA premium) paint I have been using for a while. I will compare the premium tubes and pouches to the expert paints in today's video!
*Arteza products come in 3 levels:
Classic-childrens grade
Premium-Student grade
Expert-Artist/profesional grade
Arteza is fairly new on the scene compared to other art companies but they have made a name for themselves by cranking out products. They have generously offered products to me to review over the last 2 years and have even sponsored a couple of videos in the past and I think them for their support. I was not paid or asked to make this comparison video although they did send me these paints for promotional consideration.

Expert Acrylic Paint set of 12 75ml tubes
Arteza: http://shrsl.com/1qg06
Amazon: https://amzn.to/337aqDV
Premium Acrylic Paint in Tubes:
Arteza: http://shrsl.com/1qg0g
Amazon: https://amzn.to/31ccats
Premium acrylic paint in pouches:
Arteza: http://shrsl.com/1qg0m
Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LSFgdS
Characteristics of the premium acrylics:
*Semi-gloss sheen
*Bright colors
*High tinting strength.
*Colors mix well
*Large range of colors to choose from
*Some colors are semi-transparent due to pigments used and gloss-addition of mediums and perhaps extenders.
*soft body consistency
Price is between .03 and .07 cents per ml
Characteristics of the expert range
*Matte to Satin finish (Browns and black are a bit shinier)
*Heavy body consistency
*Great tinting strength
*colors mix cleanly
*Available in 12 colors (good mixing range)
*Costs .15 cents per ml
Differences: I noticed that the expert paint went further in a stroke and have more solid uniform coverage where some colors in the premium range could be streaky and need another coat. The matte finish of the Expert paint is a difference as well but I think is more about personal preference than a quality issue. I also noticed that even though they kept the names and color numbers consistent they did use different pigments in 4 of the expert colors but the crimson was the only one that looked different swatched out.
Bottom line:
This 12 color set would last a while and you could learn to paint and mix colors without hindrance however the premium paint is still really good at half to a third of the price. If you are someone who preferred to have a lot of colors to play with go for the premium, you can't beat it. I think learning to mix colors might be easier with the limited palette of the Expert 12 color set tho. I like the big pouches myself because I tend to mix colors if I am painting and when I am working on crafts or furniture I like to have a large amount because I go through it. Choose what is right for you, it's all good:) I'll say the best value per ml is the premium tubes if the smaller tubes are useful to you.
