ROSA Studio Oil Paint Starter Set — 24 Colours 10ml Tubes, Beginner Oil Painting Kit, Made Ukraine

Start Oil Painting with a Set That Won't Hold You Back.

Twenty-four colours, 10ml each, creamy straight from the tube. The ROSA Studio Oil Paint Starter Set gives beginners everything they need to learn oil painting properly — without the cost of a professional range and without the unpredictable behaviour of cheap craft paints.

These are real oil paints. Polymerised linseed oil base, finely ground pigments, consistent handling across every colour. What you learn with this set transfers when you move up — because the paint behaves the way oil paint is supposed to behave.

What Makes ROSA Studio Right for Beginners

• Creamy, ready-to-use consistency — applies smoothly straight from the tube with no thinning needed; blends easily on the palette and on canvas
• Fast drying for a student range — approximately 3 days in a thin layer; work back into earlier stages without waiting weeks between sessions
• Opaque colours — strong coverage and confident colour from the first stroke; ideal for learning to mix and build layers
• Colour intensity holds when diluted — even when thinned with solvent, colours retain their tone rather than going weak or chalky
• Classical colour selection — 24 colours chosen according to classical art methodology, covering every mixing group: warm and cool primaries, earth tones, specialty colours, and two whites
• Predictable mixing — formulated to give consistent, expected results when colours are combined; exactly what you need when learning colour theory in practice

A Note on the Medium

Oil paint behaves differently to acrylics and watercolours. The extended blending time is one of the reasons oils produce such smooth gradients and skin tones. ROSA Studio's faster drying formula — approximately 3 days vs. 1–3 weeks for many professional oils — is a genuine advantage for beginners, reducing waiting time between sessions.

You'll need a solvent (odourless mineral spirits or turpentine) for thinning and brush cleaning, and a painting medium (such as linseed oil) if you want to extend the paint or alter its consistency. Neither are included in this set — see our full range of oil painting mediums and solvents.
