It produces a vivid, cool magenta with a distinct blue leaning undertone and a richly saturated masstone. Compared to traditional rose and crimson pigments, this color is cleaner, higher in chroma, and more luminous, yet still capable of very subtle, transparent layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn use, Quinacridone Magenta gives a brilliant, transparent magenta ideal for florals, sunsets, glazing on skin tones, luminous shadows, and high chroma accents in both landscape and abstract work. It has strong tinting strength with a transparent to semi-transparent character, making it excellent for glazing, layered washes, and optical color mixing. It mixes beautifully with yellows to create radiant reds and warm oranges, with blues and blue violets for intense violets and deep wine tones, and with earth colors for refined, rose-tinged neutrals and shadow colors that stay clear rather than muddy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis quinacridone pigment is highly lightfast, chemically stable, and compatible with a wide range of binders and mediums. In artist\u003cspan\u003e'\u003c\/span\u003es colors it serves as an ideal primary magenta for modern mixing palettes, providing both a brilliant statement color and a versatile mixer for cool reds, violets, and nuanced shadows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe quinacridone family of pigments was developed in the mid-20th century as part of advances in organic chemistry aimed at producing colorants with exceptional clarity, chroma, and permanence. These pigments were first adopted in automotive and industrial coatings, where their resistance to light, weather, and chemicals quickly distinguished them from earlier organic reds and violets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eQuinacridone Magenta (PR122) occupies a cool, blue leaning position in the quinacridone spectrum and is widely regarded as one of the most useful primary magentas for mixing. Its combination of high chroma, transparency, and very good lightfastness made it attractive to paintmakers and artists seeking a reliable alternative to less permanent rose and magenta pigments. Today it is a staple in many professional watercolor, oil, and acrylic ranges, valued by painters who want a cool magenta that performs equally well in glazing, mixing, and long-term display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Information\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Type: Synthetic (Organic) quinacridone pigment\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable Mediums: Watercolor, Oil, Tempera, Acrylic, Encaustic, Cold Wax, Casein, Milk, Swedish Flour\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLightfastness: Excellent\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpacity: Transparent\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOther Names: Quinacridone Magenta, Primary Magenta (PR122), Cool Magenta\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColor Index Code: PR122\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Morrow Archival","offers":[{"title":"2 Grams","offer_id":47875255632094,"sku":"PS-670-0000-0002g","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Grams","offer_id":47875255664862,"sku":"PS-670-0000-0010g","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 Grams","offer_id":47875255697630,"sku":"PS-670-0000-0020g","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 Grams","offer_id":47875255730398,"sku":"PS-670-0000-0050g","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Grams","offer_id":47875255763166,"sku":"PS-670-0000-0100g","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 Grams","offer_id":47875255795934,"sku":"PS-670-0000-0500g","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/2821\/2702\/files\/770db63c-3030-4198-80b4-392e8efee6b2-copy.jpg?v=1769982691","url":"https:\/\/morrowarchival.com\/products\/quinacridone-magenta-pigment-425137704","provider":"Morrow Archival","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
