Carmine - Equal in staining capacity to Alizarin Crimson, but vastly superior in permanence, Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor Carmine (PR176) is also redder. This transparent staining pigment, rich and intense, will retain its luminosity in dark passages, but will dilute to produce subtle tones without reducing its permanence. Carmine is the darkest of the reds, and will help you achieve clear neutrals when mixed with its complement, Phthalo Green.
