Hello friends!
I’m Elisabetta, an Italian watercolour artist with a passion and a curiosity for art supplies and pigments.
You know that PR206 Quinacridone Maroon has been discontinued. Winsor & Newton Permanent Alizarin Crimson has changed its formula from PR206 to PR179, Perylene Maroon. I happen to have both version and I'm swatching them side by side! Let's find out the difference!
I will also try, as usual, some mixes.
