Phthalo Blue Turquoise is a stunning color and will take your breath away! This color is perfect for tropical seas and the deeper turquoise water off white sand beaches and so much more. The highly transparent, warm blue is positioned chromatically on the DANIEL SMITH color chart after Manganese Blue Hue and before Cobalt Teal Blue. Phthalo Blue Turquoise mixes beautifully with other colors, try mixing it with New Gamboge for a beautiful natural green, Quinacridone Rose resulting in a neutral violet and Pyrrol Scarlet for a fabulous gray. Phthalo Blue Turquoise is not quite as staining as the other Phthalo colors, so it is considered medium staining, and like our other Phthalo colors it is non-granulating and has excellent lightfastness.

Potter’s Pink is the lightfast pink that was used in English watercolor painting of the 18th and 19th centuries. Also used in ceramic glazes, it is romantic rose pink, delicate and neutral – a beautiful counterpoint for brighter, more saturated colors. We’ve recently found a new batch of the pigment, chrome aluminum stannate, which is stronger in hue and tinting strength.

A dark, slightly turquoise blue-green, this innovative color is deep and concentrated, making it an ideal choice when maximum color strength is required.
