Warm violet-red, this slightly granular, super-staining vat pigment is one of DANIEL SMITH’s greatest creations. Anthraquinoid Red is bold and dashing. Deep and cool enough for a variation on shadow tones, this impressive red-violet has an amazing range. Mix with water to achieve a whisper of cool red perfect for rosy skies and blushing cheeks. A transparent color, Anthraquinoid Red glazes beautifully for added richness and depth. Anthraquinoid Red offers artists a vibrant, luminous pigment that retains its excellent permanency rating even in thin washes.
Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
