Our Ocean Blue Starter Set offers 5 remarkable blues for painting warm tropical waters or the bitter chill of the north Poole. The set includes Cobalt Caribbean, Cerulean Blue, Cobalt Blue, Ultramarine Blue, and Prussian Blue.

Cobalt Caribbean: Cobalt Caribbean beckons with the allure of a tropical paradise. Imagine the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea shimmering under the golden sun. This color captures the essence of that azure expanse, blending Cobalt Blue with hints of turquoise and cerulean.

Cerulean Blue: Soaring above the clouds, this blue looks like the space between heaven and paradise. The word cerulean comes from the Latin caeruleus and the word caelulum, which together mean ?deep blue heaven sky.? We use the pigment Cobalt Stannate to make this angelic color.

Cobalt Blue: Cobalt Blue works very well as a tint, tone, and shade. As a glaze, it's out of this world. The name "cobalt" has its roots in the German word "kobold," which means "goblin." Medieval miners gave it this name because they believed that goblins replaced valuable metals in their ore with ones that emitted toxic fumes when smelted.

Ultramarine Blue: Painters have prized ultramarine since the Renaissance when Lapis Lazuli was mined to make it. In 1824, France sponsored a competition to encourage the invention of an artificial version of the deep, vivid blue. Jean Baptiste Guimet won the prize and popularized his new economical version of ultramarine.

Prussian Blue: This regal royal blue was discovered in 1704 when a freak accident contaminated a chemist's experiment. Prussian Blue has powerful tinting strength but is clean and vivid when applied as a glaze. The iron in Prussian Blue causes the color to dry slightly faster than other blues.
