Description: Gamblin 1980 Oils - Transparent Red Oxide, 37 ml (1.25oz)
Gamblin 1980 Oils - PR101 Red Iron Oxide Gamblin’s approach is different. 1980 colours contain pure
pigments, the finest refined linseed oil, and marble dust (calcium carbonate).
Since oil painting began, these three ingredients have made more affordable
colours. Painters experience true colours without homogenized texture
or muddy colour mixtures. Gamblin's approach to using traditional raw materials
and processes ensures that artists experience the luscious working properties
they expect from their oil colours. Transparent Red Oxide: This is a truly transparent version
of Venetian Red. To adjust the colour for India Red, add a small measure of a
cool red, like Alizarin Permanent or Diox Purple. It is excellent for glazing. Red iron oxide varies in hue and transparency, depending on
hydration and slight impurities. Indian Red is a slightly duller, deep brick
hue with a bluish undertone. It is very dense and opaque, with excellent
tinting strength and covering power. It is dependable when mixed with all other
permanent pigments and yields good flesh tints when mixed with Zinc White. It is the synthetic version of PR102, a pigment made from
earth reds or natural red iron oxides. The names applied to PR101 and PR102
often overlap. Synthetic red iron oxides have mostly replaced natural red iron
oxides and are brighter, more robust, refined, and more permanent. Indian Red is the highest grade bluish shade. Light Red,
English Red, and Venetian Red are yellowish shades. Mars Violet is a dull and
subdued bluish or purplish oxide. Red iron oxide is very lightfast and has excellent
permanence. Red iron oxide has no significant hazards. Natural red iron oxide comes from the mineral ore hematite,
which the ancient Greeks called bloodstone from the word hema, meaning blood.
Hematite is one of the oldest pigments, has been used by every major
civilization, and was an essential mineral for medieval alchemists. It was not
widely used in artists' materials until the 17th century and was not produced
in large quantities until the 18th century.PIGMENT COMPOSITION AND PERMANENCE
