M. Graham 1/2-Ounce Tube Gouache Paint, Payne's Gray

I love this paint. Super quick shipping speed!

The right paint makes a big difference and these primary colors are beautiful. Along with black and white I am enjoying all the different colors I can mix. Hyatt's Graphic Supply Co., Inc did a great job with shipping.

I use this brand of paint for my watercolor paint. It is high quality at a fair price.

I have purchased these in many colors and they are consistently beautiful and have a wonderful matte finish. Well pigmented and professional quality. Gouache is really a pain to work with, in my opinion, but it can really have great results. These are not acrylic gouache, it will re-wet and cannot be layered - it’s a super delicate medium and it will dry quite a bit lighter so I try to mix the colors accordingly and mix up a good amount of paint if I need to use the same color again.

The picture doesn’t even begin to do these justice. Absolutely gorgeous colors with a luminous quality that has to be seen in person! 😻 These are the perfect mix of transparency and opacity in my opinion, exactly what I was hoping for with gouache.I bought a set of 18 Holbein colors first and did not care for them AT ALL 😐. They were super neon and garish colors that just don’t suit my taste. I was having to mix 3 or 4 colors to even achieve hues that I could kind of use, as there was only one color I liked on its own. Also the consistency of Holbein was super thick and I found that I was always accidentally using and wasting WAY too much paint and couldn’t get the right amount of water to make it smooth easily.The colors I got from M. Graham are just as vibrant as Holbein with a much nicer and smooth consistency. Some people complain that they are not opaque enough but you can very easily make these as creamy as you like with just a touch of Titanium white. I also noticed that these don’t dry out as fast on my ceramic palette and rewet much nicer than Holbein.I got Viridian, Prussian Blue, Quinacridone Rose and Quinacridone Red to start. I picked these colors to mix specifically because I love them and they are non-toxic. There seems to be a lack of yellow color options in gouache that aren’t toxic so I mixed my own using M. Graham Titanium white and Daniel Smith Hansa Yellow Deep. Mixed some lovely pastel colors using the white as well. So happy with these! 👏🏼🎉

Zinc white is great for mixing colors in gouache. Titanium white has it's uses but this one is good for tinting and blending. M Graham always quality.

It’s a gift

*Some technical bits below! in second paragraph*I've been using M. Graham gouache since 2019 with a few other artists/professional grade brands of gouache, and I trusted the gouache enough to purchase their 2oz/59ml tube of Zinc White. The fact that the company offers a large tube of this pigment for a really good price is great, I tend to use more Zinc White than Titanium White, so this was definitely a great purchase. Although Zinc White naturally tends to be hard, this Zinc White from M. Graham is easy to reconstitute!It's an amazing Zinc White, especially since its made of PW4 Zinc Oxide, not PW5 Lithopone (a compound mixture of Barium Sulfate and Zinc Sulfide). I think it's worth checking whether a brand's Zinc White is made of PW4 or PW5, because Zinc Sulfide, without cobalt dopants, can darken and grey to even a blackish color. I don't trust that other gouache manufacturers make sure that their PW5 is doped with cobalt salts, not do I want to do a lot of research to find out. However, I find that it is my responsibility to make sure that my gouache paintings are as lightfast as possible, so I prefer to do some research to find out whether the pigments I'm using are stable in even strong light.All in all, this was a great product, and this is a wonderful product. I will be sure to buy this Zinc White from M. Graham again!

i've mainly been using gouache for plein air colour studies. this is the only brand i've used and i don't see much reason to ever change. just like any medium, it works about as well as you know how to use it, but that only extends so far as the product quality, and mh graham gouache can apply for all skill levels.however, it's ridiculous that this is priced at $26 cad for a singular 15ml tube. i'd recommend just skipping amazon and ordering in bulk on jetpens, the tubes are only like $7-15 usd (they don't convert it to cad for some reason). international shipping is $10-20 depending on how much you're ordering, and basically free if you're ordering multiple paints and from the usa. i'm only buying here because i don't have time to wait for jetpen's 2-4 week shipping.

This paint is fantastic. It has all the qualities that I love from watercolour alongside the layering capability of acrylic. I’ve used gouache in the past and didn’t like it because it dried so fast that it made usage somewhat cumbersome, so I specifically bought this one because I heard it had great rewet-ability and I was not disappointed. Even if it does dry you can easily add a bit of water and it will return to its full opacity and coverage with a little mixing. This makes it much easier to clean your brushes as well. The colours are also beautiful and vibrant. I am very very happy with these and super impressed with the quality.

Nice paint but really we are getting gouged because its for arts and entertainment.

I am really enjoying this lovely creamy paint.!

Very good product.
