Tri-Art High Viscosity - Quinacridone Violet

Quinacridone Violet is a Tri-Art signature colour. Rich and plumy in mass tone, Quinacridone Violet has a deep, blue leaning magenta undertone. Despite being characterized as a violet pigment, Quinacridone Violet's magenta undertone makes an excellent red mixing compliment for the modern paint palette. Substitute Quinacridone Violet for any traditional cool red like Alizarin Crimson for cleaner, more vibrant colour mixtures. Build in layers to create lush passages of violet.
