Review on Martin F Weber Master Paint by Barbara Simmons

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Read it, you won't regret it

I recently got interested in watching old episodes of Bob Ross on PBS and he made it so easy. . I've tried acrylic paints from Walmart and various craft stores but didn't get the same effect as Bob. I ordered this set and started painting. First, these paints are incredibly dry, which is very important with the wet-on-wet technique. I would recommend buying an extra tube of Titanium White as I ran out of white pretty quickly. The brushes seem decent. The quality isn't great, but I would definitely call it worthy. I lost a few brush hairs, but that's to be expected. If you order this kit, I also recommend purchasing an unscented solvent and cleaning system. This style of painting requires you to clean the brush a lot and the cleaning system makes cleaning very fast and efficient. Also make sure you use a plastic palette as these colors will soak into the wood faster than Bob can paint a mountain. The two attached pictures were my first two Bob Ross delivery pictures. It's really very important.

Pros
  • Includes a free 30-minute Getting Started DVD with Bob Ross. Made in USA
Cons
  • I will add later
