Perylene Maroon is a mysterious colour in that at first glance appears to be a blackish maroon shade. However, you will want to extend this paint with our wax medium or XD wax medium in order to fully realize the allure this paint has. In mass tone it is almost a black, but once extended the deep transparent wine red simply glows. There is a sultry quality to this colour that is unlike it’s sister Alizarin Crimson. For an interesting primary palette try mixing with Prussian Blue and Nickel Titanate Yellow, you will be amazed at the beautifully rich and deep colors you can mix with these three and to maintain translucency use Zinc White instead of Titanium.

What’s not to love about our Wax Snaps? They are perfect for the artists who like to melt their paint as they work, have three times the amount of paint as compared to Hot Sticks®, making them a more economical choice, and has a unique shape that allows you to easily snap off what you need. Each Wax Snap measures approximately 1-1/4” long x 4” wide and 1/2” thick.

This unique shape allows you to use the whole bar or break off a section with a simple snap. Available in all 88 colours including Graphite, and our three wax mediums: original Wax Medium, XD Wax Medium, and Natural Yellow Wax Medium. Wax Snaps are great for printmaking techniques, direct melting on a hot palette or snapping off a section to refill a Hot Cakes® tin. They are also ideal for the workshop and classroom setting, where you can easily snap, dispense, and share.
