Amsterdam 20 ml Standard Series Acrylic Tubes (Set of 12)

Quality Color, Outstanding Value — The Amsterdam Standard Series

Not every painting session calls for the highest-end professional paint — but every session deserves quality. The Amsterdam 20 ml Standard Series Acrylic Tubes (Set of 12) delivers exactly the right balance — high-quality, vibrant acrylic color at a price point that makes it accessible to artists at every level, without ever sacrificing the performance and consistency that Amsterdam is known for worldwide.

Well-Pigmented Colors for Vibrant, Consistent Results

The Amsterdam Standard Series is formulated with a strong pigment concentration that delivers vibrant, consistent color across the full range. Each tube produces rich, well-saturated tones that mix cleanly and dry true — giving you reliable color results whether you’re working on a casual painting session or a more serious artistic project. The colors respond well to mixing, allowing you to build a wide range of tones and hues from the 12-color selection included in this set.

Smooth, Easy-to-Work Consistency

The Standard Series paint has a smooth, workable consistency that makes it easy to apply, blend, and layer on any surface. It flows evenly from the brush or palette knife, spreads without resistance, and blends cleanly with other colors — making it an ideal choice for both beginners who are still developing their technique and experienced artists who need a reliable, hassle-free everyday paint. The consistency can be easily adjusted with water or acrylic medium to suit any painting style or technique.

Fast-Drying for Efficient, Layered Painting

Like all acrylic paints, the Amsterdam Standard Series dries quickly — allowing you to build up layers, add details, and work across multiple areas of a painting without waiting. This fast-drying quality makes it ideal for artists who prefer to work dynamically and keep their creative energy flowing throughout a session. Once dry, the paint forms a flexible, water-resistant film that holds its color beautifully over time.

Good Lightfastness for Lasting Color Quality

The Amsterdam Standard Series is formulated with good lightfastness ratings, ensuring that your colors remain vibrant and resist fading over time. While the Standard Series is positioned as an accessible quality paint, Amsterdam maintains its commitment to color longevity across the entire range — so you can display your finished work with confidence knowing the colors will hold.

The Amsterdam Standard Series performs well across a broad range of painting surfaces:

• Canvas – stretched canvas or canvas boards, primed or unprimed
• Wood – panels, decorative objects, and craft surfaces
• Paper & cardboard – heavyweight art paper and illustration board
• Fabric – textile and mixed media art projects
• Mixed media – combine with pastels, inks, collage, and other mediums

Supports a Wide Range of Painting Techniques
