The set has one pencil, two brushes and 12 small tubes of acrylic paint. For the price, you could purchase 5 acrylic paint bottles and easily mix the colors that are included and still have paint left over, plus buy the size brushes you want to use.For a child experimenting in art the set would be fine, but for a child or adult wanting to do some real art the set will not serve your purpose.Quality is OK.
