Phthalocyanine Blue Red Shade Oil Paint - Michael Harding

Phthalocyanine Blue Red Shade (No. 231) captivates with its deep, rich colour. Offering excellent lightfastness and a fast-drying speed, it’s ideal for creating bold, vibrant artworks. No. 231 is a red shade blue, or, put another way, a slightly violet blue with the high tinting power the artist expects of ‘thalo’ colours. Some describe it as nocturne in a tube.
