Liquitex BASICS is the brand's student-grade acrylic line, and this set gives you six 4 oz (118 ml) tubes of the core colors: yellow, red, blue, plus the usual mixing primaries and white. The paint is water-based, dries to a water-resistant film, and stays workable long enough to blend on canvas or paper. It is a sensible starter kit for beginners, classrooms and hobbyists who want more volume than a small tube set offers. Compared with artist-grade acrylics, BASICS has less pigment load and a flatter finish, so colors mix a little less cleanly and coverage is thinner at full strength.

Reviewers treat this as a dependable student-grade set: good volume, easy cleanup and forgiving for learners. Experienced painters note the lower pigment strength and chalky whites compared with artist-grade paint.
