Fanchon Red / 37ml / Williamsburg Handmade Oil Color

This is a very beautiful high-keyed red- different from Cadmium Red in that it leans toward warm, glowing pinks when added to white. This is a very useful bright red for mixing. It stays cleaner and clearer than most other reds in mixes. Warmer than Quinacridone Red. Originating from the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, over one hundred seventy artist quality oil colors are now made in New Berlin, NY. Each color is milled in small batches to provide a unique expression of each pigment used. For that reason, our paints are not homogeneous, as some colors require a very fine grind that results in a rich, smooth paint, while others are best allowed to retain more texture and provide a little more resistance and less gloss.
