A powerful blue with a slightly red undertone, this popular pigment is valued for its strength and economy – just a daub of paint can colour a whole sky.
A dash of blue gives a full range of value. Mix dark colours for shading and shadows by combining Phthalo Blue with Quinacridone Rose.
Use Phthalo Blue’s transparent quality to create containers and water around stems.
