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.

The transparent non-staining properties of this cool yellow can effectively warm darker hues without affecting their transparency. Landscape artists often rely on Aureolin to successfully glaze their watercolors or as a light wash in underpainting, to add the appreance of sunshine. This pigment quality, along with the ability to lift and to create soft edges, makes Aureolin especially useful to portrait and floral painters as well.
