Academy Acrylic Colors

The next brilliantly simple example of the Academy brand is here...Academy Acrylics.

Now artists can select materials with confidence whatever their need - because acrylics, oils, watercolors and brushes are all available at near professional quality and affordable prices. Like all Academy products, our new acrylic is optimally formulated to yield true masstones, strong tints, a durable paint film and unmatched manipulative properties.

Academy Acrylics are 24 essential colors designed to provide uncommon performance at a price that people love. Big 3 fl. oz. (90 ml) tubes are available at a single low suggested retail price. True to the Academy standard set by our excellent oils, and watercolors and brushes, Academy Acrylics have Grumbacher quality and value built into every drop of paint.

Unlike so-called "bargain" brands, Academy uses genuine pigments, including pure cadmium; and hues are carefully formulated to provide not just the right masstone, but authentic tints, undertones and, most importantly, mixtures. And, because they're subjected to the same tough quality standards as our professional paints, colors are supremely consistent, batch to batch. This means that students can easily achieve the right color mixtures without frustration or waste. And, of course, all colors are certified AP Non-Toxic by the Art and Creative Materials Institute.
