DANIEL SMITH Extra Fine™ Cobalt Green Watercolor 15 ml. - World`s finest artists` paints

A mid-range green-yellow, useful for mixing middle value grays. Introduce non-staining complementary colors to warm or cool the mix. An inorganic pigment, it is considered non-staining (or low-tinting) and ideal for glazing methods. Its ability to create soft edges, to lift and to mix readily makes Cobalt Green a valuable contribution to watercolor palettes. Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
