Review: Excellent alternative to oil paints. Try it, you'll like it! - Super product! I've been working with Blue Ridge Oils, but wanted to keep my "feet wet" with acrylics, so thought I'd try the Gold OPEN. Very nice feel to these paints, excellent coverage, super saturation. The addition of the OPEN Thinner extends the drying time even further. Close enough to oil that I think it is an excellent alternative. The landscape set doesn't include black, so I had to mix a gray using ultramarine blue, alazarin crimson and cadmium yellow. Egg idea from Tisch Academy, a terrific training site with a dynamic instructor.
Review: Cool paints, try them out. Pros buy them - Sister paints, says she loves how she can paint for much longer with very little paint. Size of bottles is kind of eh, would rather buy buckets at this point 😂 Paint quality is amazing. Color variety is there but they want to you buy the specific stuff unless you’re a pro and can mix it yourself with these original ones. Dries slow, but steady. Make sure to be in a controlled heat and humidity room or in a space where thy use don’t change frequently throughout the day.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great paint
*by K***Y on July 19, 2025*

Awesome! Something that drove me crazy about traditional acrylics are how quickly they dry- 3 minutes in and I've already lost my ability to blend and the paint is dry on the palette. Not so with these-- I have plenty of time to blend beautiful skies and use up all my paint. I use them in tandem with traditional acrylics, for the times when I need a thicker application of paint.
