Liquitex Basics Acrylic Paint 118ml - Alizarin Crimson Hue

Basics are for all - from those new to painting to experienced artists. Ideal if you’re a beginner or if you’re on a budget. Perfect for underpainting or sketching if you’re a serious artist. And for colour scoping and exploration if you’re a creative professional. This medium viscosity paint is made with lightfast, artist-quality pigments in an expanded choice of 72 colours. A semi-opaque vivid red with a blue undertone. This is a mixed pigment hue - a recreation of true alizarin crimson pigment, which doesn’t offer the required lightfastness for artists. Alizarin crimson was first used as a dye obtained from the roots of the madder plant by the ancient Egyptians.
