Michael Harding Oil Paint - 208 Ultramarine Violet 40ml
Inorganic – No. 208 is a variant of Ultramarine pigment. This colour is achieved by slightly altering the manufacture of blue shade Sodium Sulphosilicate by heating it with Chlorine. The result is a weaker, more violet pigment that has a relatively low tint power and a degree of transparency that lends itself well to glazes or thin body color. In hues it becomes a high-keyed, rather fluffy textured mauve, which landscapists have found useful for the brighter tones of a clear sky and for the modeling of a sunlit cloud.
