Permanent Violet packs a real punch. It's a saturated tone that adds life and strength wherever you lay it, coming into its own worked over blue, turquoise or violet bases. Cut with a touch of white it softens into a gentle undertone for subtle degradation, so it swings from bold statement to whisper-quiet shading depending on how you handle it.

A saturated violet with real presence. Pair it with Cyan for cooler shading, and browse the wider Abteilung 502 oil range.
