Enhance your palette with the pure brilliance of Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Paint - Magenta (Colour No. 352, Series 3). As the primary magenta (M) in colour theory, this semi-transparent cool pinkish-red is essential for clean, vibrant mixing and is perfect for creating purples, violets, and a wide range of floral and sunset tones. Its luminous clarity and balanced undertone make it a versatile base for expressive modern watercolour work.

Formulated with Quinacridone Violet (PV42), this pigment offers excellent chroma, semi-transparent coverage, and smooth flow, providing a perfect balance between intensity and subtlety. Ideal for glazing, layering, or colour mixing, it maintains its strength and purity even in diluted washes.

Once dry on the palette, the paint rewets easily, retaining its vivid tone and creamy texture with every use.
