Amanda,

I just want to chime in that I'm a huge fan of Vasari paints; arguably the best I've ever used! David Kassan who was active here on this Forum several years ago, personally introduced me to them by dragging me into their Manhattan showroom and retail shop. There one can test and play with every color, with sample tubes and palette knives provided on a huge table-top to squeeze out and intermix. I am primarily using their product range on my palette. The quality upgrade is dramatic, and I may even paint better as a result. You won't be disappointed with the finer paints available. They may cost more, but they are a great value with double the covering power and better handling characteristics! I'm not kidding (and Vasari is not paying me either).
