Hooker's Green Hue / 2oz / Heavy Body Acrylics / Golden Paints

Hookers Green was originally a mixture of Prussian Blue and Gamboge before a single pigment Hookers was developed. We re-created this color using Anthraquinone Blue, Nickel Azo Yellow and Quin Magenta, for a dark masstone and rich blue-green undertone. (Series 7) The first acrylic colors offered by GOLDEN, Heavy Body paints are known for their exceptionally smooth, buttery consistency. The Heavy Body palette includes the largest assortment of unique pure pigments in a 100% acrylic emulsion available to professional artists. These colors offer excellent permanency and lightfastness. There are no fillers, extenders, opacifiers, toners, or dyes added. Each Heavy Body color formula reflects the qualities of its pigment. Colors that tolerate a higher pigment load dry to a more opaque, matte finish. Colors that are more reactive and do not allow as much pigment loading tend to have a glossier, more transparent, finish. Because Heavy Body colors contain no matting agents, the gloss of each color will be different. Characteristics: Thick paints that retain texture of brushstrokes and tool marks No fillers, extenders or dyes Rich, vibrant colors for clean color mixing Technical Detail Opacity / Transparency Semi-Transparent Lightfastness rating Munsell Notation Listing Hue:4 Value:2.6 Chroma:1 Gloss Average 97.98 Viscosity Range 16000-20000 CPS CIE L*a*b* Values L*26.85 a*-2.63 b*-0.14 Tint Strength 72.5 Pigment Detail PB60 CI number:69800 Classification:Synthetic Organic Chemical Description:Indanthrone PY150 CI number:12764 Classification:Synthetic Organic Chemical Description:Nickel Complex Azo PR122 CI number:73915 Classification:Synthetic Organic Chemical Description:Quinacridone
