Tri-Art High Viscosity - Pyrrole Red Light

Pyrrole Red Light is a highly saturated, yellow leaning, red in mass tone, with an intensely orange-red undertone to match. Pyrroles are the ultimate modern reds. Use Pyrrole Red Light as a non-toxic replacement for Cadmium Red Light that is just as opaque, but much cleaner mixing. The high tinting power of Pyrrole Red Light makes it an excellent inclusion in the modern palette, holding its own when mixed with titanium white.
