Phthalo Turquoise - 40ml

Originally turquoise was made from the mineral after the same name, however like so many of the natural pigments, it showed poor lightfastness, and when chemists plunged into the world of pigments and dyes, replacements were quickly found.

Michael's description;

"Another blend to supplement the sea-green range, this is a powerful mixer which discloses airy undertones when hued further, and which landscape painters find indispensable. The addition of Titanium White and Phthalocyanine Green to the blue hue gives it very strong covering power which holds out over large areas of application."
