Description:

Quinacridone Lilac is a luminous, cool-toned watercolour pigment that captures the essence of a soft, violet-pink hue. This vibrant, floral-inspired colour offers a delicate balance between purple and pink, making it ideal for painting blossoms, sunsets, and atmospheric scenes. Its subtle yet vivid tone adds a sense of freshness and light to artwork, perfect for capturing delicate highlights or dreamy, ethereal effects.

With its smooth, transparent quality, Quinacridone Lilac flows beautifully on paper, offering even washes and layering effects. When applied in concentrated form, it delivers a vibrant lilac with cool, pink undertones. When diluted, it softens into light, airy pinks and pale lavender shades, perfect for creating gentle transitions or luminous glazes. The pigment mixes harmoniously with other colours, forming soft purples with blues or warm pinks with reds, making it a versatile choice for mixing and blending.

Quinacridone Lilac is known for its excellent lightfastness, ensuring its bright and clear tones endure over time. Loved for its versatility, this pigment is a favourite among artists for its ability to create both bold, striking areas of colour and soft, transparent layers that bring a sense of lightness and vibrancy to watercolour paintings.
