Quality and Affordable: The Essentials Painting Kit

I’m not just being biased because it’s my own business, The Paint Sesh, that sells this essential painting kit. Quality is everything. You are only as good as the tools you use. I truly believe this is one of the best painting kits you will find for beginners or even hobbyists. Plus, your’e supporting a small business.

What’s included? A 12×16 canvas, 6-12 paint colors, 5 brushes, plastic apron, paper plate, paper towel, and a cardboard display easel. It has everything you need to paint your mastpiece but nothing more. Some other painting kits can be overwhelming if you new to the painting life. Did I mention we also sell glassware, blacklight, and tote bag painting kits?

Wanting an all-in-one painting kit with an easel? This is my pick. This painting kit includes 12 different acrylic paint colors, 7 Piece Nylon Hair Brush Set, 15 Piece Multipurpose Brush Set, 11×14 stretched canvas, 8×10 stretched canvas, and tabletop easel.

That’s not all this painting kit comes with some optional painting supplies as well including a plastic palette and color wheel. (Just be cautious because you might run out of paint.)

If you are looking for a painting kit that’s under $20 this is an option. Just remember sometimes cheaper isn’t always better. I specifically like this painting kit for the brushes.
