DESIGN PROCESS 2 YEAR WARRANTY 30 DAY RETURNS COLOUR DETAILS FAQ We thought it was about time a brand took the guesswork out of paint selection to deliver simply the best student-grade watercolour paints. We spent over a year sourcing watercolours from all over the world. We then put every paint through rigorous testing by our panel of professional watercolourists and instructors. Finally, we hand-picked the best paints that would be priced in the ‘student-grade’ category and put together a few sets that achieve what we set out to do.

Lightfastness is the ability of a dye or pigment to endure light and retain its original colour over time. The better the lightfastness level, the more resistant the colour is to fading when exposed to sunlight. We conform to the Blue Wool Scale chart, which classifies lightfastness as 1 being very poor, and 8 being excellent. We only use pigments that are 5 and above. What is the binding agent for the colours? All our watercolours use Gum Arabic as the binding agent. Do these paints Conform to ASTM-4236? Yes, they do.
