Series 5

Cobalt Blue, a cool and opaque blue, stands as a versatile choice for artists. Exhibiting excellent covering power, it proves indispensable for creating a broad spectrum of blue, green, and violet shades. Landscape artists particularly favour it for crafting sky colours, especially when mixed with Australian Sky Blue for intense mid-summer skies or Cerulean Blue for slightly greener winter or coastal skies. Blending with Australian Ghost Gum yields softer blues, perfect for capturing scenes from campfire smoke to misty mornings.

Cobalt Blue outshines other blues in generating cleaner greens on the palette. Ranging from darker olives to mid-leaf greens and lighter sap and grass greens, its versatility complements any landscape. The red undertones in Cobalt Blue enable the creation of exquisite violet colours, whether mixed with Primary Red, Magenta Quin Violet, or Australian Red Violet, offering a range from mid-violet to dark purples with ASTM I permanency.
