If you are suffering with a cold house, rising damp or penetrating damp then our exterior wall solutions can help. Here are my red paint tubes with the test swatches, labelled by brand and colour and tinted with white. On the right is a test with all my different alizarin crimson colours Murphy, Brian (2005). The Root of Wild Madder: Chasing the History, Mystery, and Lore of the Persian Carpet. The chart on the left shows how bright the mixes can be, with the bright red and green being the strongest most vibrant hues. The mixes to the right show that when these colours are combined and mixed with white too, you can make some beautiful soft pinks, earth colours and naturalistic greens. The green mixed with a touch of Napthol allows it to perform the role of the missing blue, showing that there is plenty of range in this palette. I can imagine these colours being used in a portrait or landscape composition.

These colour tests will be useful reference going forward. I now can see by brand how the colours and even the paint varies in consistency.

PR 233 – Potter’s Pink

This is the only palette in this post that uses two shades of red. The Napthol Red has a blue/violet bias, while the Cadmium Red has an orange bias, offering a cool and warm red. I chose to add Hookers Green to this palette as an alternative to a blue, and then added a Yellow Ochre as it looked gold-like, so all in all it’s a rather Christmassy palette!

In 1827, the French chemists Pierre-Jean Robiquet and Colin began producing garancine, the concentrated version of natural madder. They then found that madder lake contained two colorants, the red alizarin and the more rapidly fading purpurin. Purpurin is only present in the natural form of madder and gives a distinctive orange/red generally warmer tone that pure synthetic alizarin does not. Purpurin fluoresces yellow to red under ultraviolet light, while synthetic alizarin slightly shows violet. [12] Alizarin was discovered before purpurin, by heating the ground madder with acid and potash. A yellow vapor crystallized into bright red needles: alizarin. This alizarin concentrate comprises only 1% of the madder root.
