A semi-opaque vivid red with a blue undertone. 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. Whether you’re a beginner on a budget, an experienced artist doing underpainting or sketching, or a creative professional doing color scoping and exploration, Liquitex Basics Acrylic has you covered. Formulated with the same lightfast, fine art pigments used in our professional range (just with a lighter pigment load), Basics Acrylic delivers a lightfast, medium viscosity experience that sacrifices nothing. It’s the perfect balance of quality, versatility, and economy. So, what are you waiting for? Jump straight in, go for it, and see what happens. Experience The Everyday Acrylic.
