This fire engine red is cleaner than Cadmium or Permanent Red. It’s a modern, synthetic-organic pigment. While close in value to its cousins, the Perylenes, it disperses more evenly.
GOUACHE swatches are painted in three sections across black and white surfaces. The top is mass tone straight from the tube; middle is 1:1 paint and water; bottom is 1:1:1 paint, water and Titanium White.
