As I continue to play with the palette and explore colors on studies I found myself wondering what could be done with this pigment. I initially avoided it due to the opacity and heaviness that it has on the page. With this post I find myself ready to go and put paint to paper and Indian red to use. Thank you Jane! <br /><br />How would you say the Indian Red compares to Venetian red?

It will work very well as an ‘earth red’.

Others may prefer a more transparent 'red earth' option, or even just mix the indian red hue with Pyrrol Scarlet and Phthalo Blue GS so it is the same colour but less opaque.<br /><br />You can also make a Potters Pink hue by mixing DS Raw Umber with Quin Rose. It won't have the granulation of genuine Potters Pink but will be that dusty pink hue.

But mixed with buff titanium, it is very like the potter's pink I love.Vicky L. Williamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00435272623009754836noreply@blogger.com
