    Loaded question..What does your screen name mean?

    Phthalo blue is a paint color with pigment based on the compound phthalocyanine (there's also a phthalo green). It's all pronounced "thay-lo." As a young artist in high school I adopted Phthalo Blue as a screen name, because it was based in my interests and it was an uncommon and interesting...
