| Version | Contents |
|---|---|
| 12 × 12 ml + 2 brushes | 12 colours, 144 ml total, with two bristle brushes |
| 12 × 21 ml | 12 colours, 252 ml total, paint only |
| 24 × 21 ml | 24 colours, 504 ml total, paint only |
| 24 × 12 ml + 2 brushes | 24 colours, 288 ml total, with two bristle brushes |
Each 21 ml tube contains 75% more paint than a 12 ml tube. Choose 12 colours to concentrate on mixing, or 24 for more individual shades as starting points. More colours and larger tubes are different choices: 24 × 12 ml provides 288 ml, compared with 252 ml in 12 × 21 ml. Read your own packaging for the exact colour selection.
Choose a surface and working method
Use a surface prepared for oils, such as primed canvas or a painting panel. Start with small amounts on a palette and add a suitable oil painting medium only when you want to adjust handling. These are conventional oils; do not dilute them with water. Choose the palette, medium and support separately; only the two 12 ml versions include the brushes listed above.
Work wet into wet for soft transitions within one painting session. For separate layers, start thin and let the underlying layer dry sufficiently before continuing. When adding medium, follow fat over lean and the medium’s directions. Thickness, colour and added medium affect drying, so do not schedule the next layer around one fixed drying time.
Compare one mixture in three ways
Mix a small amount of two colours and divide it into three portions. Leave the first unchanged, add white gradually to the second, and add a little suitable oil painting medium to the third. Place the three trial patches beside each other on the same support. Compare colour, coverage and visible brushmarks after drying; record the colours and additions. This helps you choose between a lighter tint and a modified paint film.
Care and safe working
Close tubes after use and follow paint and cleaner labels. Ventilate the workspace and keep food and drink away. Remove excess paint before cleaning brushes with a suitable oil-paint cleaner; water alone will not remove these oils.
Store oily cloths in an airtight metal container: crumpled cloths can generate heat and catch fire. Collect paint and cleaning residues for responsible disposal.
