Introducing Art to Basic's Cadmium Dark Red watercolor, a deep and rich hue that is perfect for adding warmth, depth, and drama to your artwork.

Our Cadmium Dark Red is made with the highest-quality pigments and binders, ensuring that you get the purest and most vibrant color possible. This particular shade is created using cadmium, a rare and valuable metal that's prized for its stability, lightfastness, and rich tonal qualities.

Like all other Art to Basic watercolors, the Cadmium Dark Red is handmade, non-toxic, and eco-friendly. It is the perfect color for both people in love with rich colors, and those in love with caring about the planet.

Thanks to its richness, the Cadmium Dark Red is a perfect color for high-detail, contrasting art pieces. It is warm, yet not too warm, so you will be able to use it when painting dramatic backgrounds without it hurting your composition. Additionally, when you combine it with more grounded colors, you will be able to use the Cadmium Dark Red for those tiny, yet important details in your art piece.

It is a perfect color for any type of subject, whether you are doing a portrait, or a breathtaking landscape with lots of colors.
