Gamblin 1980 Oil Color - 37ml - Phthalo 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.

Phthalo Blue: Warm blue first made for printmaking ink (cyan) to replace Prussian Blue in the 1920’s. With clean, pure masstone and transparency, Phthalo Blue, like all modern colors, has high tinting strength.
