Quinacridone Red

A bright, highly transparent colour, established by us for watercolourists in the 1990’s. We were keen to see this colour enter the palette, not only for the higher key mixtures it provides (as compared to the cadmium reds) but also because it is a pure, central red for colour mixing, neither too blue nor too yellow.
