GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylic Violet Oxide is a rich, earthy iron-oxide color with a deep reddish-brown character that reveals increasingly warm red undertones as it is extended into tints and glazes. 🤎❤️💜🎨 Despite the name, Violet Oxide isn't a bright conventional violet—it belongs firmly to the wonderfully complex world of earth colors, offering artists a muted, sophisticated alternative to highly saturated purples and reds. 🌎🪨✨
Made from a single PR101 Synthetic Violet Iron Oxide pigment, Violet Oxide combines excellent opacity and permanence with beautifully restrained color. 🖌️☀️🏆 Straight from the tube it has a natural brown masstone, while thinner applications and lighter mixtures allow its red-violet personality to become increasingly apparent. ❤️💜🤎✨
