Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Paint 5ml - S4 - Cobalt Blue Light

Capture the clearest skies and tranquil horizons with Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Paint - Cobalt Blue Light (Colour No. 487, Series 4). This pure, luminous blue is a classic among landscape artists, celebrated for its ability to convey crisp daylight tones and natural atmosphere in sky and water compositions.

Formulated from genuine Cobalt-Aluminium Oxide (PB28), this semi-transparent, lightfast pigment offers a clean, bright tone with gentle granulation, producing soft, even washes that remain stable under repeated layering. Ideal for glazing, skies, and delicate gradients, it maintains its clarity without shifting towards green or violet.

Each Horadam Aquarell paint is crafted using Kordofan Gum Arabic sourced from the southern Sahara meticulously tested and hand-selected to ensure superb resolubility, reliable reactivation, and smooth, even flow. Even when dry, the colour rewets easily, preserving brilliance and consistency.

With over 150 artist-grade shades available in 5ml, 15ml, Half Pan, and Full Pan (sold separately) and 95 single-pigment colours for clean, predictable mixing, Schmincke Horadam Aquarell remains a benchmark for professional watercolour excellence.

Cobalt Blue Light (Series 4) is a semi-transparent, pure sky blue with excellent lightfastness and delicate granulation, making it a top choice for artists painting landscapes, skies, and serene water scenes with timeless luminosity.
