Application and colour-mixing technique from Matisse:

French Ultramarine Acrylic falls into the category of warm blues, slightly more generous than the existing Matisse Ultramarine blue. Both blues are distinguished by their enchanting purple bias rather than the conventional green undertones in more excellent blues. Warm blues like French Ultramarine can draw elements forward in your artwork, infusing your compositions with depth and vitality. When you seek to create expressive and immersive paintings, the warmth of French Ultramarine becomes an invaluable asset.

Colour Alchemy with French Ultramarine:

This captivating hue exhibits its magic when mixed with other colours:

•  Lustrous Purples: When combined with calm (rose or pink) reds, French Ultramarine effortlessly creates clear, luminous purples, enabling you to infuse your artwork with enchantment.

•  Realistic Greens: Blend French Ultramarine with warm (orange) yellows to craft natural, realistic greens, perfect for depicting landscapes and botanical wonders.

•  Vibrant Mid Greens: Mixing French Ultramarine with cool (greenish) yellows yields a range of mid-greens, capturing the vitality of foliage and natural scenes.

•  Balanced Neutrals: The marriage of French Ultramarine with warm (orange) reds results in harmonious mid-neutralized purples, enhancing your compositions' overall balance and unity.

•  Elegant Neutrals and Greys: Combine French Ultramarine with its opposite, orange, to produce nuanced neutrals and refined greys, allowing you to explore subtleties of tone and mood.
