Cadmium Orange Deep is a blending of Cadmium Red with Cadmium Orange.

Orange as an artist’s color is one of the unsung heroes on the palette. Most artists don’t realize how much of it they use since they usually do not think of Burnt Sienna as an orange and yet all browns are actually dark oranges. Mixing blue with any orange, including Burnt Sienna, is one of the most efficient ways of producing pleasing grays and related neutrals. In theory any two complimentary colours should produce a similar gray or other neutral.In practice the violet/yellow and red/green neutrals make far less interesting neutrals to orange/blue. With such a wide range of oranges from browns to very bright pure oranges and such a wide range of blues to choose from in both hue and transparency or opacity the artist is spoiled for neutral colors that are applicable for everything from landscape to skin tones. Speaking of skin tones, Cadmium Orange Deep is getting red enough to be useful for making some of the salmony colors found in some skins.
