Description:

English Red Oxide (130m) (P.R. 101) is a rich, warm watercolour pigment renowned for its earthy, muted red hue that evokes the natural tones found in traditional British landscapes and architecture. This pigment exhibits a classic, rustic quality with slight brown undertones, making it ideal for capturing the warmth of terracotta, weathered stone, and clay. Its deep, subdued colour lends a sense of depth and authenticity to a variety of subjects, from historical buildings to natural scenery.

This pigment offers excellent opacity and a smooth, consistent flow, allowing artists to achieve strong, saturated washes or gentle, subtle layers. When applied in concentrated form, English Red Oxide (130m) produces deep, intense reds, while diluted applications yield soft, warm tones that are perfect for shading and creating atmospheric effects. Its versatility makes it suitable for both bold, expressive work and delicate, nuanced applications.

With impressive lightfastness, English Red Oxide (P.R. 101) retains its vibrant hue over time, ensuring that artworks maintain their beauty and integrity. The pigment mixes beautifully with other colours, creating rich, earthy browns when blended with yellows or creating muted tones when combined with blues. Whether used for detailed textural work or expansive washes, English Red Oxide (130m) adds warmth, depth, and a timeless quality to any watercolour palette, making it a favourite among artists seeking to capture the essence of nature and heritage.
