Arts And Crafts - art supply sets
My daughter got this for her 8-year-old birthday, and she absolutely loves it. She creates many masterpieces following the style of the great master painters. This set has superb quality papers and color pencils. We are very happy with this set. Faber Castell Do Art - Modern Masterpieces
The set consists of 5 watercoloring pencils, permanent marker, a brush, booklet with instructions and four small board canvases, double tape, clear sticker hangers and black pads for mounting and hanging the ready masterpieces. The canvases have printed light helping lines to create the shown models. We did 3 of them according to the booklet, but the fourth one my daughter didn't want to follow the lines but created her own painting. So you may disregard the lines on the canvas and do your own art on top. The pencils are a very good quality and with a drop of water and a brush create a great color. The brush from the set is the only thing I didn't like since it almost ruined the first painting leaving hair on top, so I directly threw it away. You may cosider checking your brush before using it or better use another one. The set is a great surprise, good value and a lot of fun for children and adults. It opened a whole new world for my children. Now we will buy canvas boards and larger sets of watercolor pencils to do more artwork. This is one of the few art sets that deserve more than 5 stars. It is a great idea for a gift as well.
I got this as a last minute Christmas gift for my 11 y.o. daughter. She is artistic & loves to paint and draw. It is a very high quality craft and a very good value for the money I paid. Highly recommend for any artistic child of any age.
I purchased this for an 8 year old girl who loves to draw and paint. I thought it was perfect for her. One of her recent paintings went to Nationals, because of a contest she entered at school. She was very pleased to receive this as a present! If you are looking for something fun and creative for a child other than "another" toy. You won't be disappointed. - Art Supply Sets'
