The eye is drawn to the color red, it is a very dominate color. The first reds were introduced by Egyptian artist who used madder root and cinnabar to add to their palettes of black white and ochres.
Cadmium Red: available in light, medium,and deep. A very strong, opaque color that blackens when mixed with other copper pigments. If mixed with cadmium yellow gives a warm opaque yellow. This Red is one of two reds I use on my limited color palette.
Scarlet Red: A bright red with blue under tones good for glazing and washes.
Alizarian Crimson: A dark, transparent cool red with blue under tones. You can add this to other reds to darken them. Good for transparent washes. This is the synthetic version of rose madder. I use Alizarian crimson on my limited palette.
Vermillion: A bright intense red. It can turn black if left in the sunlight.
Carmeine: A traditional red.
Rose Madder: A transparent red made from the madder root.
Permanet Rose: Mixed with ultramarine to get a great purple.
Venetian Red: A orange earth red made from iron oxide.
Indian Red: A warm, dark earth red with a blur undertone. Makes cool colors when mixed.
Earth Reds: red ochre,red oxide,mars red, burnt sienna,terra rosa, red earth.
Remember using a complementary color intesifies a colour. Red will advance in a painting when place beside a backround of dark blue or green.
