Manufacturer Description

From Daniel Smith:
Perylene Scarlet is medium staining and semi-tranparent. It creates vivid, dark washes with a clean, vivid orange hue. This sedimentary pigment offers an additional health plus, as it is made from a metal-free orange-red. Clean, modern pigments such as this will make accidental mud-making a thing of the past.
