Here are some things you should know to get you started with Atelier Acrylic Paints What Does the Series Number Mean in Atelier Acrylic Paints? Paint manufacturers typically group their selection of paints into ‘series’, which represent the cost of the pigments used to create the colours. Typically, the lower the series number, the cheaper the paint will be to buy. It’s important to note that the series number does not indicate the quality of the paint. For example, Atelier’s Pthalo Blue is a series 1 paint, while Cerulean Blue is a series 6 paint. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the Cerulean Blue paint is of a higher quality, only that the pigments that go into it are more expensive and possibly harder to source.
