Paint with
When I started my art journey, I purchased a 12-piece set, but I haven’t been able to find it online. Maybe you’ll have better luck!
I would also recomment Winsor and Newton sets

-
Winsor & Newton
A little more expensive but I mainly use Winsor and Netwon or Gambln as my oil paints now. This is a great starter set too.
-
Brushes
Brushes are a highly personal choice, and the type you use can greatly influence your results. For the style of oil painting I aim to create, I actually avoid traditional oil brushes. Instead, I prefer brushes designed for acrylic or watercolor painting.
In my experience, a higher price tag doesn’t always mean better quality.
For fine line work, I absolutely love the ones shown below.
For the rest of my brushes, I turn to Rosemary & Co.
My go-to selection includes Series 305 Filbert Cat Tongue brushes in sizes 2, 4, 6, and 10, along with some Mundy mop brushes.

Mediums are not a must! but I do love this one to thin down my paints.
