Crimson Glow - No. 269

Crimson Glow is a warm reddish pink that shows up looking innocent… and then makes the whole painting look better.

It sits right between blush and crimson, so it can do soft and elegant washes, but it also builds into deeper, richer layers when you want real shadows and drama. It’s the kind of color that makes skin look alive, florals look expensive, and sunsets look like you actually meant it.

It blends into gradients like it has social skills, and it has that subtle glow that keeps it from feeling flat or dusty.

Basically: it’s a sweet color with a quiet power trip.
