Item #: 213F
Description: R&F Oil Pigment Stick, Cerulean Grey 38ml
It's not at all like Cerulean Extra Pale. It is a mix of
Cerulean Blue, Raw Sienna, and Titanium-Zinc White. The Raw Sienna makes it a
very subtle pale earthy green. It's so close to Neutral Grey Pale in value and
hue, but check how different the two appear in colour relationships. Classification: Synthetic Inorganic Chemical Composition: Cobalt (II) stannate Properties Cerulean Blue is the standard cool blue, considered the
traditional counterpart to Ultramarine, and is often used for painting
atmospheric shades. It is quick-drying and retains its colour in oil paint
better than any other blue. However, it tends to granulate or become chalky in
watercolours. It has limited hiding power, is semi-opaque, and is easy to
control. Its tinting capacity could be higher, so it can become lost when
mixing. Permanence Cerulean Blue has excellent permanence. It is very stable
and lightfast. Toxicity Cerulean Blue is moderately toxic if inhaled or ingested and
slightly toxic if it comes into contact with skin. History The name Cerulean Blue comes from the Latin word caelum,
meaning sky. Andreas Hopfner discovered this pigment in 1805. Still, it was widely available in Messrs. G. Rowney Co. in England, introduced in 1860
under the name coeruleum for use in aquarelle and oil painting. It was produced
by heat on cobalt oxide and other metallic bases. Classification: Earth Chemical Composition: Hydrated iron oxide Properties Raw Sienna is a moderately dull deep earth yellow with
medium tinting strength and excellent transparency. It is one of the essential
permanent artists' pigments and is made from a form of limonite clay whose
yellow-brown colour results from ferric oxides. Raw Sienna is preferable to
Yellow Ochre for creating flesh tones due to its higher subtlety of colour when
mixed with white. It makes a bright Ochre when mixed with Cadmium Yellow and
creates greens and grays when mixed with Ultramarine. Raw Sienna dries quickly. Permanence Raw Sienna has good permanence. Toxicity Raw Sienna has no significant hazards. History Raw Sienna has been a pigment since prehistoric times,
although its current name originated during the Renaissance. It comes from
Siena in Italy and is short for terra di Siena, meaning the earth of Siena.
Sienna was famous for mining and producing earth pigments from the Renaissance
until World War II. Due to the depletion of clay deposits in Tuscany, Italian
sienna now comes from other areas, including Sicily and Sardinia. Classification: Synthetic Inorganic Chemical Composition: Titanium dioxide Properties Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments.
It is considered an all-purpose oil colour that is useful in all techniques and
the best all-around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it
between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing
than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in
oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is
opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolour form. This
pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to
both Lead White and Zinc White. Permanence Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness. Toxicity Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as
completely non-toxic. Animal studies do not indicate that it is absorbed
biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern
is with the inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. History Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's
crust. However, mineral deposits that are economical to mine are rare. Titanium
dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass-produced
until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time,
it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the
Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and the ancestor of
the Titans, and the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun. Classification: Synthetic Inorganic Chemical Composition: Zinc sulphide Properties Zinc Sulphide White is a semi-transparent yellowish-white
pigment. Zinc sulphide and zinc oxide (PW4) are often combined to create a more
natural white colour. Transparency increases as particle size decreases. When
slight impurities are added, zinc sulphide has phosphorescent and
electroluminescent properties. It is often used to manufacture fluorescent or
glow-in-the-dark paints. Permanence Zinc Sulphide White has excellent permanence and
lightfastness. Toxicity Zinc Sulphide is non-toxic, but ore deposits often contain
lead. Traces of lead and other impurities may be present in pigment powders.
Ingestion is not recommended. History Zinc sulphide, when combined with slight impurities, has
phosphorescent properties. It is often used to manufacture invisible ink that
glows with ultraviolet light and fluorescent paints.R&F Pigment Stick - Cerulean Grey, 38 ml
