Liquitex Basics Acrylic 118ml Alizarin Crimson Hue Permanent
Liquitex Basics Acrylic 118ml Alizarin Crimson Hue Permanent
Liquitex Basics paint in Alizarin Crimson Hue Permanent (116) is a semi-opaque vivid red with a blue undertone with excellent lightfastness. 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.
All Liquitex paints use the highest quality pigments and go through the same rigorous manufacturing process. The only difference is that Basics uses a lower concentration of pigment than the Liquitex professional paints. For Basics, fine art pigments are selected and milled using the latest basket bead-mill technology, in the same way as Soft and Heavy Body Acrylics. Pigments are ground with tiny reinforced ceramic beads to give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness, before being added to the acrylic emulsion. Which means they're made with the same lightfast, fine art pigments Liquitex uses in the professional range, but just a lighter load.
