Find your fit

Is this the kit for you?

Why this kit fits

Acrylic dries fast and paints over mistakes. This box has the brushes, 24 colours and a pad made for it, plus a guide.

For giving as a present

You want to give something that gets used, not something that sits in a drawer.

Why this kit fits

It arrives as one complete box with the guide inside, so they can start the day it lands. Sixty days to send it back if it is not right.

For coming back to painting

You painted years ago and want to pick it up again without hunting for supplies.

Why this kit fits

One box replaces the drawer of dried-up tubes, with nothing missing and nothing to work out.

Acrylic looks forgiving until you actually try it. The paint that came with your starter set goes on thin and streaky, the brushes lose their shape after a few strokes, and what should be bold, opaque colour ends up looking washed out and patchy. That's not a lack of skill - it's under-powered kit doing exactly what under-powered kit does.

Solve the tools problem and the confidence problem solves itself. This kit pairs a proper 10-Piece brush set with paint that actually covers in one layer and a pre-primed pad ready to go straight out of the packet - no priming, no compromise between what you're using. Add the guide, and you're not guessing your way through a blank canvas. It walks you through exactly what to do, brush by brush, from first mark to finished piece, in your first week with the kit.

What you'll be able to do in a few days:

  • Load and layer acrylic paint properly instead of overworking it into mud
  • Use the right brush and palette knife for the right job - blocking in, blending, fine detail - without ruining your work on the wrong tool
  • Finish a complete painting, start to finish, following the guide step by step
  • Know exactly how to clean brushes and knives so they last years, not weeks

What's inside

  • 10 Piece Professional Brush Set with Gift Box - The Milano
  • Zieler Premium Acrylic Paint Set (24 x 22ml tubes) - rich, opaque colour, ready to use
  • Premium A3 Acrylic Pad, 20 sheets - 400gsm pre-primed, canvas-feel paper, no priming needed
  • Set of 5 Artist Palette Knives - for blending, texture and knife-painting technique
  • FREE: Canvas Roll Bag - keep your brushes protected and organised
  • FREE: Finesse 5-Piece Detail Brush Set - for fine detail and finishing touches
  • Your step-by-step Acrylic Project Guide (12 pages) - brush and knife mastery, colour mixing and layering, a complete painting walked through start to finish, tool care, and troubleshooting - exclusive to this kit, you can't buy it separately

You are unable to get the Acrylic Project Guide anywhere else. It's what tells you exactly what to do next, brush in hand, instead of staring at a blank canvas.

Start this weekend - or your money back

Caring for your brushes A minute after each session keeps them for years

Look after them and they’ll keep their shape and point for years. It only takes a minute at the end of each session.

Before first useSoak them briefly in cool water, comb the hairs gently from top to bottom and let them dry upright.
  1. Rinse in lukewarm water until it runs clear. With acrylics, don’t let paint dry in the hairs.
  2. Now and then, work a drop of mild soap gently through the hairs, then rinse.
  3. Reshape the point with your fingers.
  4. Dry them flat or bristles up, never resting on the bristles.

Avoid

Leaving brushes standing in water, very hot water (it loosens the glue), and scrubbing on the bottom of the jar.

Store

Once they’re dry, keep them flat or upright with the heads up, somewhere they won’t get knocked.

If a brush ever sheds or loses its point within 60 days, our guarantee covers it.

“I have not treated them kindly. I have scrubbed paint into the canvas, stipple, used strong solvents and left them soaking in oil overnight. After all of this, they still maintain their shape, keep a good point or edge and are very easy to clean.”

I started The Artist’s Brush Boutique in 2019. My mum and dad, Jane and John, are both professional painters, and they’ve painted with our brushes from the very beginning. Each year they open their home for the Arundel Festival and hang their paintings for people to see.

We’re still a small family business, not a warehouse. Everything we sell is something we’d happily paint with ourselves. If it doesn’t meet that bar, we don’t sell it.

    Is this right for a complete beginner?

    Yes. Most of the painters in our gallery started from nothing, and every kit ships with a printed step-by-step guide written for exactly what is in the box. If a product suits one level more than another, its page says so plainly.

    How do the free gifts work?

    Spend £50 for free UK delivery and the free Canvas Roll Bag, and £60 for the free Finesse Set of 5. Everything is added to your basket automatically, there is no code to enter.

    How fast is delivery?

    Orders are dispatched within 24 hours. UK standard arrives in 2 to 4 working days (£3.95, free over £50), priority in 1 to 2 (£7.95). We ship to the EU and worldwide too.

    What if I do not get on with it?

    You have 60 days to change your mind, and we send a prepaid return label, so sending it back costs you nothing. No quibbles, no restocking fees.

    Which mediums do the brushes suit?

    Each product page says which mediums it suits, watercolour, acrylic or oil. Sable carries water beautifully; our firmer synthetics stand up to acrylic and oil. If you are unsure, email us what you paint and we will point you right.

    Is it gift-ready?

    Our sets arrive in boxes worth keeping, no wrapping needed. If you would rather they choose, a gift voucher lets them pick their own.
