Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor, 15 ml, Cobalt Violet

These vibrant watercolors span the color spectrum from the historical pigments originally used by Renaissance masters to natural earth tones and vibrant quinacridones. Cobalt Violet embodies the softness of flower petals with its slightly granulating texture and lustrous finish. With a truly transparent quality, this light purple radiates in light washes. The delicate pigment comes alive at full strength and, because it is completely non-staining, highlights can be added and strokes reworked. Cobalt Violet’s ability to create soft edges, to lift and to mix readily makes it a valuable contribution to watercolor palettes.
