Taryn Knight Gouache Art Kit

I really wanted to love this kit. The workbook is so ding dang small, and the directions to teach you the techniques are very sparse. The illustrations are so small, too. I loved the supplies and really wish we had more technique exercises and instruction. I spent all this money so that I could learn to do this technique so I'm pretty disappointed for the heft price of the kit itself. Real bummer.

Bought it for my fiancee and she loved it! Art tutorial was very informative and easy to follow

Loved this kit - have started drawing almost daily thanks to the guide. Love Chapman's art as well, the stickers are especially superb. One thing, the pens all came in different sizes (nibs) and some would have been better in the wider nib. Other than that - love it!

I love the artist's style, and look forward to completing more of the practice pieces with the booklet guide. As people say, its more color theory than actually teaching how to paint (which I actually like).

I wish the painting pages were larger! There's so much detail shrunken down. Maybe they could have used both sides of a page?

I do have a few issues with the supplies, however. I did not get the Poscas along with my order since I already own some. This paper is not meant for acrylic markers. It pills and breaks apart really easily, along with not absorbing the colors well. I intended to use gouache for the paintings too, as the gouache kits use the same paper, but this paper does not hold water well either.

Love the idea, love the artist's art and learning about colors, don't love the paper included for the price.

The products are very high quality and even as they made their wide way to me to germany they arrieved just perfectly! Everything is so heartfully designed and packed with love! I can totally recommend every tradional artist this kit to get for some wholesome hours to get a flair for acrylic markers. 🙂
