Oil colour tube Talens Van Gogh Phthalo Turquoise Blue 565, artist oil paint

Talens Van Gogh Phthalo Turquoise Blue 565 is an artist-grade oil colour in a convenient tube designed for professional and amateur painters. The paint offers a vivid turquoise hue with high tinting strength, suitable for direct application, glazing and colour mixing. Formulated for consistent texture and reliable drying behavior on traditional oil painting supports such as primed canvas, panels and prepared boards.

Advantages

This oil colour delivers intense, transparent turquoise tones with excellent tinting power, enabling clean mixes and bright glazes. The smooth, buttery consistency spreads evenly and retains brushwork detail, while the pigment stability ensures lasting colour without excessive fading. The tube format preserves paint freshness and allows precise dispensing for controlled layering and detailed work.

Suitable for

• Fine-art oil painting on primed canvas and panels
• Layering and glazing techniques
• Colour mixing to create a range of blues and greens
• Detail work with brushes or palette knives

Key specifications

How to use

Use directly from the tube or on a palette for mixing with other artist oil colours. Apply to primed supports using brushes, palette knives or other oil-painting tools. For glazing, thin the paint with a suitable painting medium following the manufacturer’s recommendations; for impasto or textured effects use undiluted paint. Allow layers to dry sufficiently before applying subsequent layers to avoid cracking and ensure a stable paint film.

Usage recommendations

Store the tube in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed. Clean brushes and tools with appropriate solvents or brush cleaners designed for oil paints. When mixing, test small amounts to achieve desired hue and transparency; use proper ventilation and follow safety guidelines for oil paint solvents and mediums.
