Phthalo Blue (Red Shade) for Deep, Inky Blues

Phthalo Blue (Red Shade) gives an inky, near-black blue in the thick band of our swatch and a vivid royal blue wherever the brush drags thin.

Chroma spells it PTHALO BLUE (RED SHADE) on the royal blue colour band, with an open circle and Series 2 printed beneath the name. French and Spanish versions follow: Bleu de Phtalo (Nuance Rouge) and Azul Ftalo (Matiz Rojo). Below the band, the Atelier script logo carries the line Fine Artists' Paint and the date Est. 1965, and the white lower half names the range as Interactive Acrylic, Unlockable Formula.

Night skies, deep harbour water and the darkest blue shadows are where this colour earns its keep. The 80ml tube is sized for regular easel sessions yet small enough to ride along in a plein air bag, and the royal blue band makes it easy to find in a box of assorted tubes.

Code AI16460 identifies this exact 80ml tube. Round out a blue palette with other acrylic colours, brushes for acrylic work, a surface from art paper and canvas and a few painting accessories.

FAQs

One 80ml tube of Atelier Interactive Phthalo Blue (Red Shade), code AI16460. The painted swatch in the first photo is only a colour guide and does not ship with it.
Chroma prints PTHALO on this label, while our title uses the more common Phthalo spelling. Both names describe the same Series 2 tube.
It is one of the symbols Chroma uses on Atelier labels, but the key explaining them is not visible in our photos of this blue, so we would rather not guess its meaning.
Chroma labels the Atelier range Fine Artists' Paint, and that printed tagline is all we go by. We add no grading claim of our own for this phthalo blue.
No. The label mentions an Unlockable Formula, but this order is the 80ml tube of paint only, with no separate medium in the box.
