Daniel Smith Watercolour 15ml Series 3 Perylene Violet

A deep, luscious, grape-juicy reddish-violet. The masstone is dark and intense, shifting in tints toward a rich red violet with a brownish-purple cast. Because of its relative neutrality, its a natural-looking choice for portrait, landscape or botanical work-imagine how good it looks with complementary greens. It also makes strong, interesting shadows.Available In: 15ml tubes;SKU:284600201Pigment:PV 29 | Series: 3Lightfastness:I ExcellentTransparency:TransparentStaining:3-Medium StainingGranulation:Non-GranulatingStarting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the uniformly with a round brush to show the paints color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the colors tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
