Acrylic Paint, Winsor & Newton Galeria 60 ml — Prussian Blue 541

Winsor & Newton Galeria Acrylic Paint in Prussian Blue 541 (60 ml) is a water-based, fast-drying acrylic formulated for studio, classroom and mixed-media applications. This medium-viscosity paint offers reliable colour strength and good mixing properties, allowing artists to achieve transparent glazes as well as opaque layers. The 60 ml tube provides a convenient size for both practice and finished work on canvas, board, paper and other primed surfaces.

Advantages

The formula dries quickly to a flexible, lightfast film that resists cracking and is suitable for layering and glazing techniques. Its balanced pigment load gives consistent tinting strength and predictable mixing behaviour with other acrylic colours. The paint is water-soluble when wet for easy thinning and cleanup, yet becomes water-resistant after drying, supporting durable finished surfaces for exhibition or study.

Suitable for

• Oil-primed and acrylic-primed canvas painting
• Board and panels prepared for acrylics
• Mixed-media works combining collage, gesso and acrylic layers
• Educational projects, workshops and student practice
• Layering, glazing and colour-mixing exercises

How to use

Shake or knead the tube before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. Apply directly from the tube with brushes, knives or other tools; adjust consistency with water for washes or with acrylic mediums for thicker impasto or extended working time. Allow each layer to dry before applying subsequent layers for glazing and accurate colour results. Clean brushes and tools with water while the paint is wet.

Usage recommendations

Store in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed to prevent skinning in the tube. For archival results, use lightfast colours and apply to properly primed supports; consider varnishing finished work with a compatible acrylic varnish after complete drying.
