    my go-to painting medium

    This 60 color set is my standard supply. I currently have 2 of these sets in use and one complete set as backup. The water-based colors are intense and can be used in many ways; with a brush and water or just as the dry paint stick. The various colors have different viscosities and a differing amount of color solubility. There's a learning curve as with any art material you are unfamiliar wth. The best part for me is that if, for example, I need to make a few quick dabs of yellow, I just pop the cap off the stick and make the marks. No wet paint on a pallette, no wasted pigment. I love these and I've left traditional paints far behind.

    Vibrant Colors and Easy to Use

    These sticks make the application of bold and vibrant color easy. They lay on rich and smooth and allow for unique mark-making. I typically use brushes with either oil paint or watercolor so these paint sticks are a refreshing change of pace .

    So much fun!

    I absolutely love these I just wish they came in cardboard tubes Which would make the product more eco-friendly. I brought them to a community draw event. They were very popular.

    Best Tempera paint sticks.

    The use of these tempera paint sticks is highly enjoyable. However, it would be beneficial if King Art offered open stock options for individual colors. As an artist, I tend to use certain colors more frequently than others and often run out. It would be convenient to purchase those specific colors without having to buy an entire set, similar to the open stock options available for their mix media gel sticks. I have attached photos of my artwork created using King Art's tempera paint sticks. To facilitate the purchase of individual colors, King Art should assign color names or numbers to all their tempera paint sticks. Additionally, it would be appreciated if King Art expanded their current selection of 24 colors tempera paint pens to include 60 colors and offer open stock options for all colors. Despite these concerns, I am a satisfied customer and will continue to purchase King Art's tempera paint sticks. Thank you.

    A great set of paints!

    I’m a huge fan of tempera paint sticks for mess-free painting projects, but this is the best set I’ve seen. So many colors to choose from and the quality is great!! I used them for a small art class for adults and everyone enjoyed the variety and the projects turned out great!! These are a great value and give so much flexibility to projects!!

    Not for children only

    It works like an oil paint stick. Cleaner (kept in a lipstick like cylinder, so you don’t touch the paint). Buttery consistency when you paint with it. And it is translucent, so you can do glazing. These are all characteristic that fit my work. Once dry, which happens in seconds, it does not dissolve in water so easily, so you can paint over it with water based paints. I don’t know the permanence. My question: Can I buy these sticks individually, when some end before the others? In the picture, the brown and orange are done with these paints

    long lasting art class supply

    I have used these for a few semesters of class now and they are still going strong. They dry quickly and are easy to adjust and control so there is no wasted product. The kids love that they are like "magical" glue sticks.

    My favorite brush

    Premium original gold 9020 max round is my favorite. Nice sharp point, holds lots of water. So I ordered it in many sizes. King art sent me free sample of mixed media gel sticks and I love these too. So I ordered a complete set of colors. Also ordered a complete set of tempura paint sticks because I saw them used by an artist on IG-Paul Wang.

    fantastic quality in tempera and gel pencils!

    I'd already had a set of temperatures sticks from a while back that I loved using. So I needed so i needed more for my canvas work. The temperature are a lovely creamy consistency and dry smooth and fast. I love using a bit of my water brush to blend them for some really soft effects. Their already present color blending is perfect as well. The gel pencils are much the same except more slender in hand. Wonderful and I can wait to order more for my back up stash.

    BOLD, dries quickly

    I love the layering effects these have. I can almost replicate risograph printing because when I use one color on top of another it shows through. Wish they also had a thinner option to help draw finer details but overall the smoothness/creaminess of the texture comes out so nicely.

    I love it omg

    I saw someone using one of the gel sticks on instagram and the smoothness of it really got me going. I got the full 72 set and some temepera paint sticks and DUDE sooo good. So good. Really worth every penny. I love it can’t wait to get some more :)

    Same medium as the gel sticks

    Not sure why they call this tempera paint sticks. They are the same medium as the gel sticks. I bought both thinking they were different.
    That being said, they are a smooth, soft crayon type material (lipstick like) and good on paper. They don't seem very water soluble but are fun to use. You can blend some with your fingers but I would have preferred it being water soluble like tempera is supposed to be.
    Just didn't really need both and don't understand why they call them tempera paint sticks.
