Excellent review❗ It has been so very helpful.
Thanks for the video. I am wondering if you would recommend them for an all in one beginner acrylic set or if there is another brand that has a set you would recommend?
"Skin color". Opsie they did accidental racism. I hope the name will be fixed because this is offensive.
Perfection!!!!
Do they have a link or an app to add to my website so customers orders go directly to them for the reprints?
Thanks for the review, it helped me a lot. I was checking on acrylic paints for a while now and wondered which affordable brand I should choose. Please do not be over sensitive with the paint names. I think people in general need to grow some thicker skin and not be so easily offended by everything, as this is getting a little bit silly 😉
thank you for making this video! im going to order from them, ive been searching for where to order forever. you motivated me!
Extremely helpful! Thank you
Because there are so many colors, and they are all flat, won’t it run out faster??
LOL...ok I watched vid for paint/cost review. I didn't have thoughts on the name of paint colors: flesh, skin color but then again you were just doing a review of the paint for a bargain price. I normally use 3 to 4 colors to find the skin tone of person I may being painting. I don't usually do portrait painting, more scenic and wildlife/pets so it would again be mixing/blending for shades/highlights etc. on fur. I've never tried this with acrylics, but I didn't have enough of an airbrush paint in Createx brand, so went to small town art store...and they did have Createx paint but not the color I needed, so I bought lower priced brand and mixed last bit of Createx with few drops of new brand and it worked. So, prices being what they are now a days, use the Meeden and get a set of Ateza brand paint set and try a test of starting with a 2:1 ratio. First try 2 dabs of Arteza, 1: of Meeden, flip it around and see how the review comes out? If I could afford to buy back all the art paint and supplies that were stollen I'd do some playing about with different acrylic paint brands myself. You did well in the review. I think even professional artists are finding supply costs more difficult to afford buying only leading top name brand paints and supplies. I made most of my own paint brushes. From using horsehair, pig bristles, to when I could get even squirrel hair. Tho I didn't use squirrel as much. I mostly painted with acrylics and not watercolor/gauche. Hand made much of own supplies from Graphic tools, easels, interior/exterior paint supply to stretched canvas or canvas boards. Using mainly recycled construction materials from a family friend's construction company. The many years of compiling all I made myself or improvised using tools for construction for Graphic work/artwork would cost low of $13K-30k or more with rising cost/inflation. But if you try what I suggested, it may help beginners, intermediary, and pros.
Thank you for this!! It really helped me a lot. Also did you have an option to put a boarder or did you edit the photo with a boarder before uploading it? (I’m just scared that they’d close crop a photo if it’s not the perfect dimensions with their printing options)
i too work in the medical field. in Cath lab!!! AND we share the same birthday!! <3 really hope you got your birthday wish girl! im sure you are an amazing nurse!!! thanks for the videos! glad i found your account!!
Is this brand really non toxic? It just smells so strong. Its also not certified by ACMI or AP which are usually found on acrylic paintings.
You talk about the terms "skin colour" and "flesh" possibly being offensive to some people, and then you use the word "gypped", which is a racial slur?
I love this orange butterfly I think it's my fav 😂
I was wondering if u can draw a person bc I have never seen y draw one 😅
I miss this series 🥲
I think I'm gonna buy this 😅
I really love the butterfly 🦋 also the flower 🌺
This is supper cool! I need one 😭✌🏻
I'm not even joking everything u draw looks so real!! 😤
This look so real 😱
Hi happy belated birthday 🥳 lol 😂 and I would actually eat the cupcake 🧁
great video, can I ask which matt sealer spray did you use?
Hi sorry for getting back to you so late! I used the Krylon Matte Finish sealer to finish my art.
your so underrated!
None of Arteza's colored pencil lines are Lightfast. Especially so if faded in 1 month! Give me a break! If you do any colored pencil art with non-lighftfast colored pencil, either keep the artwork in a dark place, display away from ANY direct sunlight and if framed, pay extra for UV resistant glass. If you leave any colored pencil artwork exposed to any strong sunlight, you will not have any artwork to look at! All the more expensive brands, like Derwent, probably tested for a much longer period/duration and rate their Lightfast color pencil lineup for 100 years! Arteza and any other cheap brand of colored pencils claiming lightfastness are all just lying about their products and just hyping and lying. Buyer beware.
Where part 2?
Lol and you can’t even increase their UV resistance with a UV resistant spray. The spray will make the Artezas run.
you’re awesome! i’m so glad i found this review, i’ve been wanting to find somewhere to print my art so i can restock my shop but to no avail. everywhere is so expensive that it makes it difficult to buy in bulk and hope to make my money back in sales, so i’m really excited to see that this site could be my diamond in the rough!
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this! Such a GREAT review!! Great job👏
I won't be 23 until August 11, although were both born in the same year. Not to mention, although it has nothing related to birthdays, but where did you get your Colored Pencils folder/binder because I needed one for my Prismacolor Scholar Colored Pencils Set of 48 Pieces or even 60 Pieces, who knows if I'm going to buy alot of backup.
Happy early birthday! And I got mine off of Amazon I’ll link you the listing. Enyuwlcm Canvas Stationery Handmade Roll Up Pencil Case for Artist Pencil Wrap Coloring Pencil Holder 24/36/48/72 Slots Cat Pattern Blue(36slots) www.amazon.com/dp/B08BC5T52X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_7Y0WYE88ABB0076V6678?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 I think you can also find some by searching for “pencil wrap cases” on Amazon as well! It’s pretty nice. I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re someone who’s kind of rough with your materials, since it’s not super protective, though. But it’s really nice for the price! Mine has 48 slots and was $9.
since you have a little trouble whit the voice over I recommend to write a script
That’s a good idea! Thank you!
@@studio_of_meg256 no problemmm! <3

Great review! I was considering trying them out and now I think I will! And I'm really shocked (and thankful lol) that those prints you made from your phone came out so well! I have a Canon but my phone honestly takes better pictures of my work than my camera does
No problem at all, glad this helps! And thank you so much! I totally feel the same way my phone tends to take pictures of my work pretty good!
the painting is turning out spectacular 🤩, can't wait to be in the next live 😆(also happy early birthday 🤗)

I bought those before on eBay turned out they were some fakes and I payed good money for them it was the saddest moment of my life but it was kinda funny as he left a note in the box saying you just got scammed it was so unbelievable. 😢 😭 💀
Dang! That sucks!!! Yeah eBay can be sketchy sometimes and sadly Amazon too depending on the seller!
1:38 Well, I would love to see a review of the acrylic paintings you have, it would be interesting 😃 And thank you for giving your opinion and review with the new paintings , it is very helpfull for me, because I will be able to know how that painting really work😊
Sure thing! And no problem at all, glad it helps!
LOVE UR VIDSS
Awe thank you so much! I really appreciate that!

I feel like anyone serious about their art being lightfast and archival isn't going to be picking up cheap 120+ sets. There are plenty of really good quality and affordable artist level pencils (and other media) that have stood the test of time and have been officially rated and are used by pretty much every professional. Arteza using their own "rating" instead of the official rating that costs money to be considered for should tell people something straight away, and whilst it may be disappointing to find that their inexpensive pencils aren't the next best thing since Derwent or Faber-Castell, was anyone genuinely expecting them to be? The average hobbyist is coloring a page in a book and putting it away, not displaying their art in sunny rooms. Even professionals will scan and print their art in those situations and keep the originals for higher priced sales. And if you're looking to reach that level of skill and regard that people would buy your originals, you're not going to be using Arteza. I feel like some of the drama surrounding this company and their supposed claims is completely unfounded and many need to really reasses their expectations. I do however really appreciate the clear and concise, evidence based information you've provided here.
Hi! Thanks for the feedback! These pencils really aren’t bad for a beginner level, which they are mainly marketed towards. Budding artists may use them for their commission work though especially when just starting out or not having the funds to afford a higher end brand, which is why I wanted to see how lightfast they were for them to see. True about their rating system, sadly people who may not know better may end up thinking they are way more lightfast than they claim. I had no expectation at all for them to compare to an artist quality grade pencil since they are mainly marketed towards kids, colorists, hobbyists, beginner artists etc. not so much the professional level ones. Also based on their price I know they aren’t going to compare to a better brand. So for sure, the more expensive ones will hold up WAY better. Just reviewing them off of their own claims and seeing how long they can hold up in general. Since they have their own scale I am curious to see what it takes/how long it takes for these to fade. So basically, judging them against itself definitely not against any artist grade material. To me it’s still shocking to see so many colors fade and some fade so drastically within the short time, even being budget brand pencils. And for them to increase their prices of their materials over the years to closer to a “not as budget friendly” option, my tests are for other people to really determine if they want to spend their money on and purchase their materials or not. Especially since many different kinds of artists have different kinds of needs for their materials. Even someone who is serious about their art may want a cheap pencil that last longer than a month or so in light. Granted their work is most likely not going to be displayed in a window or get as much sun as these do, it’s still good info for people looking to make a purchase. But really I’m trying to find out what, on average, is considered their “good”, “excellent”, “fair” etc lightfast range on these. Personally I like using these and getting my art scanned to make prints to sell, so it’s not a big issue. Of course I wouldn’t sell the original if I made it with student grade materials because of the risk of it fading in a short time. But since I mainly sell prints, it’s not too big of a deal. I agree. Some reviews/videos about their lightfast issues make it seem like it’s some high end artist grade brand selling products that are sub-par when in reality they are just a mid/high student range if that. Thanks for the feedback though! Really appreciate it!
I contacted Arteza and was told that they use the ASTM lightfast ratings (l, ll, lll, lV, V), which can be found online.
@@ccj7982 with respect, I wouldn't trust a word Arteza reps say, or any other company for that matter. They will all lie to cover their own hides. Marco supposedly told another RUclips pencil reviewer that the Renoir were wax based and the Tribute oil based and are definitely different pencils when they're actually the same pencils with different barrels and double the price tag as a result, and they appear to also be the same as Bruynzeel and Brutfuner (IMAGINE!), the latter of which are the same as Guang Hui, Starjoy, Socolor, that new one with the elephant on the tin etc etc etc. With all the money some people spend on "affordable pencils" that are identical to one another, they could just get something actually lightfast and not mass produced in China and none of this would even matter. I don't own the Arteza pencils yet but will be picking up a set during Prime Day as they're often on the Lightning Deal page. I suspect there will be a shocking "similarity" between them and all the other mass produced pencils though. And let's not forget that even the owner of Daniel Smith, a highly regarded American professional grade paint company was just recently caught telling porkies about the contents of some very, very expensive tubes of pigments. They're all full of it. Side note, if Arteza did pay for official testing, all those ratings on the pencils are lies anyway, as evidenced by the numerous people who made swatch sheets and left them to sit on their windowsills for a couple of months. There are plenty of blogs and videos with extensive evidence that they're utter nonsense.
@@ccj7982 Hi! Thanks for letting me know that! But, even if it were ASTM rated, it doesn’t seem to holding true to the test that I’m performing. If so many have already faded in a months time at full strength, it makes me think these others will not last more than a year at the latest. Only time will tell though. Not saying Arteza is lying because I don’t really know, but if they were that would really suck especially with their prices increasing so much over the years.
