Quinacridone Deep Gold is more orange than Quinacridone Gold, and more yellow than Quinacridone Burnt Orange. It’s an incredibly ruddy golden-orange, a vibrant and exciting alternative to Burnt Sienna. Quinacridones are the brightest, boldest colors modern technology can offer. Carefully selected pigments, ground to optimize their specific qualities, are blended with the finest imported Gum Arabic, put in tubes and labeled by hand. Transparency and intensity are the hallmarks of our renowned DANIEL SMITH Quinacridone colors.
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.
