Dioxazine Purple is a very deep purple that has a very strong tinting strength. It is transparent and has a high chroma. Dioxazine Purple is part of the modern palette. It makes a great glaze by extending with lots of wax medium, where you will be able to really appreciate the purple. In mass tone it is so dark it looks black. Dioxazine Purple pigment can have a bluish cast or reddish cast, ours leans more towards a reddish purple and is a single pigment paint. Another name for this pigment is Egyptian Violet. It is a royal colour. Don't be shy about extending with wax medium, it is really the only way to appreciate this paint. When used in mixes, a little goes a long way. Dioxazine Purple is featured in our Extended Academy Hot Cakes® Set.
