Enkaustikos - Phthalo Blue Green Shade

Phthalo Blue Green Shade is a single pigment paint. All Phthalo pigments have an extremely high tinting strength. In mass tone they are extremely dark in value, often overlooked on the shelf since they appear black. They are also highly transparent in nature. Therefore, they are an excellent choice for extending with wax medium for glazing techniques. When used for mixing other colors, only a small amount is needed, as that is indicative of most modern pigments. Phthalo Blue Green Shade makes a stunning turquoise blue when mixed with either Zinc White or Titanium White and a great choice for mixing greens. Phthalo Blue Green Shade is in our Enkaustikos Hot Cakes® Extended Academy Set. Also an excellent choice for encaustic printmaking.
