This truly unique
colour is often found in watercolour ranges as opposed to oil. Perylene Violet is a smoky mauve violet with a
very unusual caricature. When combined with rich yellows such as Indian Yellow, the colours produce
amazing browns and deep gingery shades. This is a subtle colour that may not leap off the palette and dazzle
in the way a quinacridone does but is a marvelous addition!
