An excellent burnt red crimson, useful for botanicals as well as the highest chroma deep reds in oil paint. Valuable as a transparent red, in thicker glazes it can appear similar to Anthraquinone (PR177), but in thinner glazes a different nature is revealed. It feels like a cross between Alizarin Crimson and Quinacridone Violet, and has a tiny bit of desaturation to it. A helpful color where deep, chromatic reds and violets are needed. Some versions are very slow drying, but worth it. This color tends to be transparent and is reported to have excellent lightfastness. Perylenes in general may struggle a little in tints, but this one seems to come through better than most, so see artiscreation for specifics.
This color has a structure that is similar to the anthraquinones (possible carcinogens) so please consult Monona Rossol's work for more information.
