Dive into the timeless allure of blue with this trio – featuring Phthalo Blue, Prussian Blue, and Ultramarine Blue.
Phthalo Blue:At its darkest, Phthalo Blue is reminiscent of midnight. Thinner applications reveal a reddish royal purple and sapphire blue color. Compared to Ultramarine Blue, Phthalo Blue is highly staining and has an overpowering tinting strength. Mix this clean sapphire blue with other colors to make extraordinary greens and violets.
Prussian Blue:This regal royal blue was discovered in 1704 when a freak accident contaminated a chemist’s experiment. Prussian Blue has powerful tinting strength but is clean and vivid when applied as a glaze. The iron in Prussian Blue causes the color to dry slightly faster than other blues.
Ultramarine Blue:Painters have prized ultramarine since the Renaissance when Lapis Lazuli was mined to make it. In 1824, France sponsored a competition to encourage the invention of an artificial version of the deep, vivid blue. Jean Baptiste Guimet won the prize and popularized his new economical version of ultramarine.
