Cyan Blue, PB15.3 or PB15.4 or just PB15 as a Manganese or Copper hue, it is also called,
Thalo or Phthalo Blue which comes from the word phthalocyanine, it shades to
a neutral shadow color by adding it's opposite color Cadmium Red

It takes two transparent oppositions to mix neutral or one transparent and one translucent color,
two translucent colors, or one transparent and one opaque. Two opaque colors just won't do it.

This was painted with red, cyan and white, see more color-in pages here.
