Gamblin 1980 Oil Color - 37ml - Cerulean Blue

These oil colors offer artists true color for a real value and are intended for painters who are increasing their knowledge of techniques or experimenting with new ideas. Paints are formulated with pure pigments, refined linseed oil and marble dust (calcium carbonate). They are made from approximately half the colored pigments of artist grade oil colors and include added extenders that have good film forming properties that do not muddy color or corrupt texture. Each extender is paired with the pigment so that opaque colors remain reasonably opaque and transparent colors are not clouded.

Cerulean Blue: Mixed metal oxide from the early 19th century with an important place on the mineral palette because blues are rarely shifted to the cool, green side, like this one. Very muted in its tint so most valuable as a pure hue.
