Student Quality

April 28th, 2006 Leave a comment Go to comments

An artists’ colour that is made to sell at an economical price. This will often mean using either second grade binders and “hue” pigments or using extenders to reduce the pigment content. Some of the substitute pigments may have reduced lightfastness. Student colours are designed for beginners and, of course, students, although some “professionals” use them.
