Watercolour Paint Cake TEKA Indigo Blue (single pan) - MILAN 590362

TEKA Indigo Blue watercolour paint cake (single pan) provides a concentrated, transparent pigment formulated for watercolor techniques. This single pan contains indigo blue paint designed for washes, glazing, layering and fine detail work. The compact format fits standard watercolor palettes and is suitable for studio use, classes and outdoor painting sessions. The paint reactivates easily with water and produces consistent colour intensity for mixed-media applications and touch-ups.

Advantages

The single pan format is portable and simple to mount in palettes or pansets, making it convenient for on-the-go painting and quick colour replacement. Indigo blue offers a deep, cool hue that mixes well with other watercolours and retains transparency for layering techniques. The formulation is designed to rewet reliably and provide even pigment distribution, allowing both broad washes and precise strokes.

Suitable for

• Watercolour washes and glazing
• Detailing and line work with small brushes
• Plein air and travel painting
• Mixed-media projects requiring water-reactive pigment
• Art classes and student practice

How to use

Activate the paint by moistening the surface with a wet brush until the pigment dissolves to the desired intensity. For light washes, dilute with more water; for stronger colour, use less water or multiple layers. Use round or pointed brushes for precise lines and flat or wash brushes for broader coverage. Allow each layer to dry before applying further glazing to maintain transparency and avoid lifting underlying layers unintentionally.

Usage recommendations

Store the pan in a dry palette or container after use to prevent contamination. Rinse brushes between colour changes to preserve pigment purity, and test mixing ratios on scrap paper to achieve the preferred shade of indigo. For archival results, use appropriate watercolor paper and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
