Liquitex Basics Acrylic 250ml Ultramarine Blue

Liquitex Basics paint in Ultramarine Blue (380) is a single pigment rich semi-opaque blue with green undertones and excellent lightfastness. Allegedly named because it was thought 'bluer than the sea', ultramarine was originally made from semi-precious lapis lazuli. The current pigment was created by French chemist Guimet in 1828 as a synthetic, but chemically-identical alternative.

All Liquitex paints use the highest quality pigments and go through the same rigorous manufacturing process. The only difference is that Basics uses a lower concentration of pigment than the Liquitex professional paints. For Basics, fine art pigments are selected and milled using the latest basket bead-mill technology, in the same way as Soft and Heavy Body Acrylics. Pigments are ground with tiny reinforced ceramic beads to give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness, before being added to the acrylic emulsion. Which means they're made with the same lightfast, fine art pigments Liquitex uses in the professional range, but just a lighter load.
