Featured Paint: Raspberry from Sheep & Sundry
By Michael
Featuring Raspberry from independent paint manufacturer, Sheep & Sundry. This paint can be seen at the following link on ArtOrgTool. Made of pigments PBr7 and PR122, the Sheep and Sundry Etsy shop states; “A highly pigmented cool red, Raspberry gives you the tinting strength and saturation of quinacridone magenta with the texture, handling and easy lifting of an earth pigment. The earth pigment slightly mutes the magenta without losing its saturation or utility as a mixing color.”
After being scanned and analyzed by the ArtOrgTool algorithm, the watercolor swatch above produced a range of hues from 346 to 355. The graphs below show this range, with the top graph representing the number of pixels of a given hue found in the watercolor swatch, and the lower graph showing the range of saturation for each hue. Hue 351 appeared in 8818 pixels with a saturation ranging from 0.2065 to 1.0.
The final analysis resulted in a reference hue, saturation, lightness (HSL) of 351, 0.65, 0.65 for the watercolor swatch above.
More information about the reference HSL can be found in the following post, titled Refining reference HSL value for swatch.
