Description:

Cerulean Blue (P.B. 35) is a classic, cool-toned watercolour pigment known for its soft, light blue hue reminiscent of a clear sky. This fresh, delicate colour brings a sense of calm and openness, making it ideal for painting expansive skies, distant mountains, or tranquil water scenes. Its natural, subtle blue tone provides a sense of atmosphere and light, perfect for creating peaceful landscapes and airy compositions.

This pigment is semi-opaque with a granulating texture, allowing it to create beautiful washes with a natural texture. When used at full strength, Cerulean Blue (P.B. 35) offers a bright, clean blue, and when diluted, it transitions into pale, transparent blues that are ideal for gentle highlights, soft shadows, or misty effects. Its granulation adds an organic, textured quality that enhances skies and water reflections.

Cerulean Blue (P.B. 35) has excellent lightfastness, ensuring its colour remains stable and luminous over time. It mixes wonderfully with other pigments, creating muted greens with yellows or soft purples with reds. This versatile pigment is a staple in many watercolour palettes, appreciated for its ability to evoke light, air, and subtle transitions in landscapes and natural scenes.
