Description

Quinacridone Magenta (P.R. 122) is a deep, vibrant, and cool-toned watercolour pigment known for its intense pinkish-purple hue. This versatile pigment strikes a perfect balance between red and purple, making it ideal for various subjects, from florals and sunsets to abstract compositions. Its radiant, jewel-like quality and exceptional transparency allow for luminous washes and vivid layers.

Highly transparent and smooth, Quinacridone Magenta is perfect for glazing and layering, providing rich, deep colour without losing clarity. When used in concentrated form, it produces a strong, intense magenta, while diluted applications create soft, cool pinks with subtle violet undertones. It mixes beautifully with other colours, blending with blues to form vibrant purples and with yellows to create glowing, warm reds or oranges.

Quinacridone Magenta offers excellent lightfastness, ensuring that its brilliance remains stable over time. Artists appreciate this pigment for its adaptability, capable of producing both bold, saturated areas and delicate, ethereal washes. Whether used for glazing, mixing, or standalone applications, Quinacridone Magenta brings a vibrant, glowing depth to any watercolour palette.

Brilliant pigment

Tried Jackman’s Quinaqcridone Magenta and it’s a pigment I can’t live without. I shopped around as some companies pigments vary but this is up there with the best and so useful, especially in making vibrant oranges and purples. Also very competitively priced for high quality professional spec. Colour. Using Jackman’s more and more now.

Loving all of Jackman colors, I've been buying them all including the crystalline line and am having fun with them all. Every color is excellent quality and absolutely stunning!! Considering that I'm in the USA, delivery time is wonderful. I get them within two weeks.
