Discover the 3 New Opus Essential Acrylic Trio Sets – NEW for September 2025

The tubes and boxes for the Opus Essential Acrylic Limited Edition Trio Sets in Woodland Glow, Autumn Blaze, and Dramatic Neutrals are on a white table.

This September, Opus Art Supplies is excited to introduce three new Opus Essential Acrylic Trio Sets—exclusive colour collections designed to inspire your fall paintings. These professional-grade paints feature the highest pigment load, creamy texture, and brilliant colours artists love, with 8 of the 9 colours only available in these sets (for now!).


Whether you’re capturing the warmth of autumn foliage, the drama of stormy skies, or the glow of forest light, these trio sets offer ready-made palettes that integrate beautifully with your existing acrylic paints.

Woodland Glow Trio Set

The colours in the Opus Essential Acrylics Limited Edition Trio Set: Woodland Glow mix to create gorgeous deep shades reminiscent of forests and sun-kissed woodland areas.

Colours: Mixing Gold, Prussian Blue, Yellow Cinnabar Green


Autumn landscapes come alive with the Woodland Glow Trio Set. With a transparent, radiant Mixing Gold reminiscent of quinacridone gold, a moody Prussian Blue, and an earthy Yellow Cinnabar Green, this set creates a stunning seasonal range.


From glowing pumpkin oranges and rich olives to mossy greens and sunlit forest shadows, these colours are ideal for artists painting landscapes, foliage, and natural subjects. Use them to mix subtle undertones of shifting leaves, or to add luminous highlights that bring fall scenes to life.


NOTE: Prussian Blue is the only colour in these new sets that is available in our current lineup of Opus Essential Acrylics in individual tubes.

Autumn Blaze Trio Set

Colours: Opera Pink, Medium Violet, Diarylide Yellow


Turn up the heat of your fall palette with the Autumn Blaze Trio Set. Opera Pink and Medium Violet combine with Diarylide Yellow to create vibrant oranges, fiery reds, and deep magentas reminiscent of turning leaves at their most dramatic.


Perfect for expressive painters, this set helps capture the vibrancy and energy of the season. From bold floral studies to abstract impressions of colour in nature, these hues are versatile enough to stand alone or to amplify your existing acrylic palette with a surge of autumn brilliance.


NOTE: All three of these Opus Essential Acrylic Colours are exclusively available in this set.

Dramatic Neutrals Trio Set

The Opus Essential Acrylics Limited Edition Trio Set: Dramatic Neutrals colours are a useful addition to any palette - whether for creating stormy skies, or for neutralizing other colours in your collection.

Colours: Warm Grey, Light Grey, Neutral Tint


Fall isn’t only about colour—it’s also about atmosphere. The Dramatic Neutrals Trio Set is perfect for artists looking to add mood and depth to their work.


These three versatile neutrals can be used for expressive monochromatic paintings, or to soften and balance brighter colours from your palette. Evoke the quiet tones of stormy skies, misty mornings, or the subtle harmony of weathered natural textures. These colours help create sophisticated, layered effects that make your vibrant hues stand out even more.


This set is a great addition to any palette where subtle neutrals are desired. Blending small amounts of these colours with your other acrylics will soften them in various ways. Below you can see an example of each of the Dramatic Neutral colours mixed with Quinacridone Magenta for more muted versions of the colour. 

NOTE: All three of these Opus Essential Acrylic Colours are exclusively available in this set.
