The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition for a color filter and a color filter fabricated using the same. The photosensitive resin composition includes (a) an acrylic-based resin, (b) a photopolymerizable monomer, (c) a photopolymerization initiator, (d) a pigment, and (e) a solvent. The acrylic-based resin is a copolymer including a repeating unit of an ethylenic unsaturated monomer including a carboxyl group and a repeating unit of an ethylenic unsaturated monomer including an alkoxy 4-oxo butanoic acid group. The photosensitive resin composition for a color filter can have residue removing characteristics, and is capable of forming fine pixels and providing a color filter having high resolution.
