Rublev Ultramarine Blue (Green Shade) is a transparent, high strength ultramarine milled in linseed oil with no additives to alter the natural pigment and oil behaviour. Because ultramarine is hydrophilic, this paint has a distinctive long handling and can leave slightly stringy, elastic brushmarks, making it excellent for expressive brushwork, glazing, and layered passages where you want the paint to pull and hold a lively stroke.
This green shade ultramarine (PB 29) leans cooler than red shade ultramarines, making it ideal for clean sky mixtures, ocean palettes, crisp blue greens, and luminous transparent shadows. While ultramarine itself is a classic, this formulation highlights a particular working character that many painters seek in natural, additive-free oil paints.
