Richly pigmented to produce a pure, opaque matte finish, Daniel Smith Extra Fine Gouache Tubes are artist-grade, waterbased gouache colors offering professional performance and outstanding lightfastness. High concentrations of the same premium pigments and pure gum arabic as Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolors result in optimal density and opacity without whites or other fillers. 17 of the line’s 22 richly saturated colors are formulated with a single pigment for clean color mixtures, and every color in the range offers exceptional lightfastness.

Wonderful on both light and dark surfaces, these professional gouache colors allow for a full range of lifting and staining techniques. Apply colors as mass tone straight from the tube for rich, full-bodied solids with single brushstrokes or temper colors smoothly with water to create softer lines and hazy layers.

History
Developed by chemists using the trade name Monastral Blue, the organic blue dyestuff now known as Phthalo Blue was presented as a pigment in November 1935 in London. Its discovery was accidental.

The demand for such a pigment came from commercial printers who wanted a cyan to replace Prussian Blue.
