Quinacridone Coral
Quinacridone Coral (PR209) Though corals in nature span a broad spectrum, Quinacridone Coral offers a rich, warm pink with a distinct coral hue, more vivid than the peachy tones we often associate with the name. Transparent yet bold, this colour is ideal for adding warmth and depth to florals, portraits, and sunsets. Its unique balance of red and pink gives it remarkable versatility, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of subjects.
Quinacridone Coral is a single-pigment Michael Harding oil colour made with PR209 (Organic).
It is transparent, very good lightfastness, average drying time, high tinting strength.
It is ground in linseed oil with high oil content.
