Description:

French Ultramarine Deep is a rich, warm-toned watercolour pigment known for its intense, deep blue hue with subtle red undertones. This variation of the classic French Ultramarine offers an even darker, more dramatic tone, perfect for creating bold skies, deep waters, and atmospheric shadows. Its warmth and depth make it ideal for adding richness and dimension to landscapes, seascapes, and night scenes, bringing a sense of intensity and mood to artwork.

Semi-opaque with excellent granulation, French Ultramarine Deep spreads smoothly across the paper, producing textured washes that add visual interest and depth. In its full strength, it offers a dark, velvety blue, while diluted, it transitions into softer, warm blues, allowing for beautiful tonal gradations. The granulation enhances the pigment’s character, giving paintings an organic feel with a touch of texture, particularly in larger washes.

French Ultramarine Deep boasts outstanding lightfastness, ensuring its rich, saturated colour remains vibrant over time. It mixes beautifully with other pigments, creating vivid purples when combined with reds and earthy greens when mixed with yellows. This versatile, dramatic pigment is favoured by artists for its depth, warmth, and ability to create powerful, bold areas and soft, atmospheric transitions, making it a staple for expressive, moody watercolour work.

These are outstanding paints. Lovely rich evenly diffusing pigment. They easily rewet and are a joy to paint with.
