Cadmium Red notes


Cadmium Red Light: Orange/red first synthesized in 1910. Because of its muted tints, excellent color for natural light painting.


Cadmium Red Medium: Darker than Cadmium Red Light. Useful medium red with strong opaque masstone and muted tint; light will not penetrate its surface.


Cadmium Red Deep: Darkest Cadmium Red with very muted tint. Consider Perylene Red if you prefer a brighter tint or mix Perylene Red with the tint of Cad Red Deep.
