Series 3

An artistic tip involves experimenting with mixes of Magenta (Quin Violet) with Iridescent White or Matisse Iridescent Medium MM24. When applied over a straight colour, especially black, it creates a shimmery effect that adds depth and allure. Beyond its experimental side, Magenta (Quin Violet) plays a conventional yet crucial role. Blending it with earth colours imparts warm, transparent undertones, elevating otherwise dull passages. Its transparency lends itself to glazing techniques, enabling artists to recreate the vibrant colours of everyday objects, from textiles and toys to cars and wall colours—hues not found in nature but essential for portraying the diverse world of man-made creations.
