Scarlet Lake Light Michael Harding Watercolour

Scarlet Lake Light Michael Harding WatercolourNapthol Scarlet Lake is a well established, organic pigment that can be used transparently or opaquely, according to choice. In an unmixed state, it is a pure and slightly fiery red with good tint power and a range of yellowy orange undertones. These undertones become noticeable when brushed and produce much brighter and warmer pinks than are attainable with the Cadmium Reds. When mixed with white, Napthol Scarlet Lake will appear almost fluorescent.
