The Jacques Herbin Eclats Fine Art Bleu Petrole Watercolor Ink Bottle delivers a deep petrol blue with a refined teal cast. Fluid and water-soluble, this versatile ink moves effortlessly from rich, inky lines to airy washes, making it a natural fit for sketchbooks, studio studies, and expressive illustrations.
Color & Medium
Bleu Petrole sits between blue and green, offering sophisticated teal tones that read clean and modern. Used straight from the bottle it presents strong saturation; diluted, it opens into luminous layers and subtle gradients with pleasing tonal range.
Working Characteristics
Formulated for watercolor techniques, this ink blends smoothly for wet-on-wet effects and builds translucent glazes with control. Pair it with watercolor brushes and dip pens for journaling, hand lettering, and line-and-wash work. For consistent results, use on watercolor or mixed-media paper and rinse tools promptly after sessions.
Herbin Heritage
