DANIEL SMITHExtra Fine Watercolor Paint, 15ml Tube, Quinacridone Fuchsia, 284600132, 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

Nice cream paint and lovely colour

The most vibrant gold ever

I enjoy using Daniel Smith Quin pigments for the exciting way they interact with other pigments

Rich, deep color. Once again, Daniel Smith has created a wonderful pigment.

This is a dark and fiery orange, I like it a lot.

This red is absolutely gorgeous on its own. But I still love mixing with it. It is probably my favorite red for mixing. It can produce cool tones and beautiful warm tones. I use it for skin-tones (from the really dark to really light), flowers, abstract paintings. I use it in literally every painting. I LOVE it. I haven't used my Quinacridone Rose as much since I got this color. A must-have in any of my palettes!

Confession: My first name is Ruby, and I have had a lifelong love affair with shades of red. From burnt orange to crimson to maroon, I love them all. But Scarlet, that gorgeous warm shade of red makes me the happiest of all. Its like liquid fire (that doesn't burn), or like Michigan maple leaves in autumn, or that perfect moment at sunset when it looks like the sky might turn molten, or the glimmer of garnet chips in sunlight on a beach (I actually walked on a beach of garnets once - it was a real, if transient and rare, thing).Clearly, I am biased. I love rich earthy, firey reds. And Quinacridone Burnt Scarlet is just soooo lovely. Unfortunately my photo above just didn't capture its richness at all. *sigh* But it gives you some idea of what Daniel Smith's QBS offers.Paired with Quinacridone Gold (which is minutely swatched above) and Quin. Burnt Orange, I have been basking in all the warm brilliance that DS's Quinacridone pigments can offer. I can layer them, glaze upon glaze, without mud. I can lift them beautifully, they move wet in wet predictably and freely, they dry without losing a ton of their brilliance (though scarlet loses the most in drying shift I think, purely anecdotally). They blend into this complete range from yellow to fiery reds together with one another seamlessly, while also playing well with pretty much every other pigment I have tried them with.In a way, I am glad I missed out on the original Quin. Gold (PO49) because I imagine the heartbreak must be intense, but learning on this new blend (PO48+PY150) is probably a big reason I am addicted to watercolor painting now.The transparency of these Quinacridone pigments is astounding, and how forgiving they are to new painters with a tendency to overwork is inestimable.I know they are not "traditional" pigments per se, but at this point in my painting practice, I could not do without any of them. I can't wait to try more paintings with Quin Burnt Scarlet specifically just to see what sort of things I might achieve with it over time.I highly recommend ANY ONE of these Daniel Smith Quinacridone colors. Any one!

It lasts a long time and does what I expect from DS watercolors

This product works great in my paintings. Very easy to mix with water, no bits. Love it!

Buana calidad de pintura. El vendedor (ArtVallarta) es muy responsable y amable.

Worth every penny

Never used Daniel Smith for watercolour painting and was a bit sceptical as the brand’s a bit pricey for a student / new amateur. But it really is superb, strong, creamy paint and quinacridone burnt orange is definitely up there with the most useful and most used in my palette.

The product is great..as a Daniel Smith watercolor should be...Good choice for botanical works..like flowers etc
