Note on select colors - Raw Umber, Raw Sienna, Burnt Sienna, Indian Yellow, Permanent Tuscan Earth, Olive Green, and Sap Green were originally formulated with mineral spirits, which may result in a slightly stronger scent. This does not affect the quality, performance, or permanence of the paint.
The formula has since been updated to remove mineral spirits. Due to mixed stock, you may receive either version. If you prefer a consistently low-odor option, consider Utrecht Artists' Oil Paint .

Properties
Ultramarine Violet is a semi-transparent, dull purple to pale violet with low tinting strength. As a pigment, it is weak in most oil applications, but it performs better in water-based mediums, pastels, and chalks. It is generally the bluest of the violet pigments, although there can be significant differences in color across brands. It is not suitable for fresco work and does not mix well with yellows. Ultramarine Violet is a variant of Ultramarine Blue, and their pigment properties are identical.
Permanence
Ultramarine Violet has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
