Description
This watercolour is made with a pigment classified as a hydrated chromium oxide-Arylamide. The pigment has a color index of PG18-PY3 and a color index number of 77289-11710. The pigment is also lightfast according to ASTM.
One of the unique characteristics of these watercolours is the unparalleled colour strength (maximum pigmentation). And while this high colour strength requires a slightly different approach on the part of the aquarellist (so little paint is needed from the tube or cup for the desired colour effect that you have to get used to the ratio of paint to diluent), the advantages are clear.
