Daniel Smith 5ml Extra Fine Watercolour - Cerulean Blue, Chromium

Get ready to try something new with smaller 5ml tubes. Formulated to meet and exceed the highest industry standards, every batch is thoroughly analysed for its performance qualities – lightfastness, colour value, tinting strength, clarity, vibrancy, undertone, particle size, density and viscosity.

Paint everything you can imagine with vibrant and consistent colours that can be easily mixed for even more variations.

Beautiful on its own, and especially so when mixed with a transparent pigment, this sky blue inorganic pigment is granular and medium-light in value. Highly permanent and extremely low-staining, Cerulean Blue creates exciting granulation and settling washes. A drop of Cerulean Blue into a damp wash such as Burnt Sienna creates a halo effect around the more dense Cerulean. This is especially effective when Quinacridone Gold or Quinacridone Burnt Orange are used in the moist underpainting. This technique is great for rendering lichen and Spanish Moss. Add Buff Titanium, Undersea Green and touches of Lunar Black – each a DANIEL SMITH exclusive – and the creative fun truly begins! For a misty landscape or that dusky quality on eggplant, grapes and plums, think Cerulean as a mixer.
