Benzimidazolone Orange~Half-Pan~Greenleaf & Blueberry Artisanal Handmade Watercolors Color Name: Benzimidazolone OrangePigment: Benzimidazolone OrangePigment Index No.: PO36 Descri ption: A bright, neutral to warm orange that leans just a little more red than yellow. Very smooth with very fine pigmentations. Intense tinting strength, limited value range, and no granulation to speak of. Like our Quinacridone Magenta, Quinoxalinedione Yellow, and Phthalocyanine Blue and Green, this color is a synthetic organic hybrid, which means they are synthetic single pigments bound to a natural mineral base. As a result they will have behavior characteristics in common with both synthetic and natural pigments. These won't handle the same as synthetic colors from other paint lines. As specialists in natural pigments, why on earth are we offering this color? We are very intentional when we stray from natural and historical pigments. While Cinnabar (natural Vermillion) is an extraordinarily beautiful color, it is highly toxic (mercuric sulphide). We prefer not to work with it in our studios, but it leaves a hole in our palette. Where the pigment that nature offers is unsuitable (too toxic, unstable, too rare), we turn, with much thought, to modern alternatives. We work with standard white plastic Half-Pans. They are therefore durable and lightweight. They also fit into most metal bijoux boxes and watercolor travel boxes.Our Half-Pans measure: 2cm x 1.7cm x 1cm Half-Pans are a great choice for artists who are going for a minimalist approach and tend to seek all of their supplies in tiny lightweight versions and for artists who love to carry as many colors as possible while still managing space and weight. They are also a nice way to try out a color that is new to you. Further information about our watercolor paints is available here. Please be aware that every monitor and screen displays colors a little differently. We have done our very best to show our colors as they appear in your hand. **Please Note**: These colors are NOT intended for children. Half-Pans are small and therefore a choking hazard. Please use only as intended. All images and descriptions are copyrighted by Greenleaf & Blueberry®© Greenleaf & Blueberry LLC 2011-2022 www.greenleafblueberry.com@greenleafblueFacebook Show more
