Matisse Studio Acrylic Paint 120ml - Aqua Green Light

Matisse Aqua Green Light (Series 1) is a luminous, mermaid-green acrylic paint that bridges ancient history with modern expression. Though its vibrant, fashion-forward hue suggests contemporary flair, it traces its visual lineage to malachite, a treasured copper-based mineral pigment used by ancient Egyptians for over 5,000 years. Known as wahdj, malachite symbolized joy, fertility, and renewal in ancient art, its significance reflected in hieroglyphics and sacred imagery.

While traditional malachite has faded from the artist’s palette, Aqua Green Light revives its spirit in a more vivid, stable, and versatile form. Created from a refined blend of Titanium Dioxide and Phthalocyanine Green (Blue Shade), this brilliant hue provides strong opacity, ASTM I lightfastness, and high tinting strength, ideal for adjusting saturation without sacrificing clarity.

Whether evoking the cool shimmer of summer waters, the silkiness of fine fabric, or the vitality of spring flora, Aqua Green Light delivers unmatched flexibility. Blend with Cobalt Turquoise for sea tones, Permanent Green Light for vibrant grass hues, or Nickel Titanate for soft yellow-greens. Pair with Iridescent White for luminous pastel effects or with Ash Pink for a gentle, muted palette.

A must-have for artists across styles and genres, this Series 1 paint embodies both history and innovation in a single, elegant pigment.
