Golden OPEN Slow-Drying Acrylics 2oz Cobalt Turquoise
Golden OPEN Acrylics paint in Cobalt Turquoise (7144) is a semi-opaque, synthetic inorganic color with excellent lightfastness and permanency. A deep, opaque Cobalt-based turquoise, this paint is very green in the masstone and reveals more blue in its undertone and glazes.
OPEN Acrylics are a slow-drying paint with a slightly softer consistency than Golden's Heavy Body paints. The increased working time of these colors expands their range to include more traditional techniques once only possible with oils. Thick applications can dry extremely slowly, so Golden recommends artists only use OPEN Colors thinly (< 1 mm). Drying time can also be accelerated by mixing OPEN with faster-drying acrylics like Golden's Fluid and Heavy Body colors. The slow-drying capability of OPEN Acrylics also makes the suitable for some printmaking techniques.
Because OPEN Acrylics dry slowly, painters who cover their palettes or use sealed containers have been able to use the same colors for weeks, reducing the amount of paint wasted and preserving color mixtures for future use.
