Daniel Smith Watercolor Stick - 3 inch - Cobalt Blue

 Pigment:PB 28 (77346), Lightfastness: Excellent, Semi-transparent, Low-staining, Granulating

This neutral, non-staining primary blue will subtly modify most pigments. Considered a mixing pigment, its’ semi-transparent nature can cast a giant reticulating shadow. An inorganic pigment, it is considered non-staining (or low-tinting) and ideal for glazing methods. Its ability to create soft edges, to lift and to mix readily makes Cobalt Blue a valuable contribution to watercolor palettes. These watercolor sticks feature the same color intensity as Daniel Smith Extra-Fine Watercolors, and the same convenience and portability of half pans in a handy stick form. Each watercolor stick is packed with pure pigment and is highly reactive with water, producing vibrant, strong, rich and creamy colors when wet. They can also be used dry to help build texture, making them a great medium for sketching, developing color values and bold expressions. These extra-fine watercolor sticks are a great addition to every artist s palette.
