Duochrome Cabo Blue adds a third reflective colour, shifting from blue to metallic gold, then finishing with a shimmering metallic blue. They're made from mica pigment, thin transparent particles coated with highly reflective metal oxides. Luminescent Watercolours show best as glazes over darker colours and are excellent mixed with other colours adding a bit of their luminescent glow.

Many artists have asked what the differences are between the different DANIEL SMITH Luminescent Watercolours; Iridescent, Interference, Duochrome, and Pearlescents.
Nature has optical surprises in the colours that you see in birds’ feathers, insects, fish, and seashells, and many flowers also have a pearly, dewy sheen. Consider the iridescence of a snail’s trail or a silvery spider’s web. Other things also have a sparkle or glow depending on the light, a silvery or golden moon, clouds aglow at sunset, rainbows, the sparkle of snow and ice, and glint of water reflections. Don’t forget the sheen of metals like pewter, copper, silver, and gold. There are also mythological subjects often thought of as having exceptional iridescence, such as fairies, dragons, mermaids and other fantasy figures.
These excellent subjects beg for special paints, and the DANIEL SMITH Luminescent Watercolours are perfect for painting subjects like these!
