I am going to pursue a refund with this item... I got the set of 12 colors. It is actually 2 each of six colors. The colors are very poor. Yellow looks like mustard; red is dark orange. Even my two year old says, "That's not red; that's orange!" The colors are very thin and transparent. Tried to paint a terra-cotta flower pot with them and could get no coverage even with navy blue. Very poor paints. I've had nice paints from Sargent before; must have been a different type.

I ordered these paints for my classroom as they were a very good price through our school supplier. They are goopy, are weird colors (e.g. "black" looks like navy blue), and are transparent even after several applications. One of my favorite quotes from my aide, "It's like they put food coloring in hair gel."

When I opened the box, I noticed that I had received "Sargent Art Acrylic Paint" instead of the "washable tempera paint" I had ordered. I'm not sure what happened. I have not yet opened the paints to test their color or consistency as I am debating on whether or not I am going to return them...or just use them.

Just thought I should let you know about the order mix up.

I bought these for our kindergarten teacher at the start of the school year and we got great art pieces all year long. The picture shows only six bottles, but the set is supposed to be twelve (2 bottles of each color). Be careful...when I got my order it had only 6 bottles and I had to call Amazon to straighten it out. I think for $28, it was an outstanding deal. These are the big bottles.

I am an idiot. I didn't clearly read the description and didn't read the reviews. I received 12 large bottles of paint, but 6 basic colors... 2 bottles of each. Disappointing, yes, but still a decent value and I can teach the kiddos how to mix their own fun colors.
