Hi there!
In today's episode of The Paint Show we'll be looking at Carbazole Violet, which is an old favorite of mine!
I originally got this in the Daniel Smith Secondary set, which I highly recommend.
You can get the set here (affiliate link): amzn.to/2m5aT4D
Or the specific tube here (also affiliate link): amzn.to/2D4fWuq
Here's what Daniel Smith say about this paint:
This slightly granular blue-violet is an intense, vibrant color with medium staining properties. A brushstroke of concentrated Carbazole Violet onto dry paper moves the pigment from black-violet to clear purple, and can invent an iris petal with each stroke. Add Indigo to Carbazole Violet, along with Quinacridone Rose or Anthraquinoid Red. Blot, squeegee and incise damp passages to created veins, variegated passages and highlights.
I did several paintings with the entire set, as well as this specific paint, and the thing I like the most about it is the insane range of values.
It can go from really light to almost black. This is a really unique feature, and I don't know of many paints that can do that.
And so, if you are interested in monochromatic paintings, or even doing a value matching exercise, this is a great tube to have.
More info:
Pigment: PV23 (Dioxazine Violet)
Series 2
Excellent lightfastness, semi-transparent, non-granulating, medium staining.

I bought this color on a whim just to have a premade purple for my starter watercolor set. HOLY CRAP. This color is becoming one of my top used now in mixes. It makes so many beautiful colors! I've found it makes great colors with Phthalo Green blue shade.
Carbazole Violet is my favorite purple… and I have a lot of purples! It is gorgeous from mass tone to its most delicate wash.
I just ordered this color because I wanted a deeper more intense purple. So I was glad to see a sampling of it. Good timing I guess!
Really like these colors, and I used your link to order the set! Great video! I agree; I do not care much for the green/violet mix; it is not pleasing, but all the other mixes are wonderful! Such a lovely brown with the orange/violet combination. Thanks Liron!
This color would be great for distant mountains or distant trees! It's very pretty!
Yes (:
I plan to order this set. Love that purple
I'm sure you'll find it useful (:
ordering the stick tonight, also quin burnt scarlet, That will bring me to 4 DS colors. I have Rich Green Gold, and Sodalte Genuine. I love the 2 I have, and I love the sticks over tubes! I just wet them and stick a piece in a small tin ;) Thanks Liron!
I bought the 3 pack with this back when you did all of your green's video and I love all 3 colors!
Super cool! It's a really great set.
I love paints that I know I'll have multiple uses for, and these answer that criteria (:
Wet on wet: hoar frost on the window pane in the very early day! (I always think of winter and snow as purple, though most would probably say blue. Unfortunately there's even more of the purple stuff falling outside as I type.)
I wish it would snow here!
I would be really happy to paint that kind of purple / blue on location 😁
Liron Yanconsky be careful what you ask for....Google an image. On Instagram I'm rosemarieinmaine so I know of what I speak 😜
@@Rosemarie04921 Northern Michigan here and, yeah; how right you are!! 🙄
I'm thinking I should try the Carbazole Violet myself! I like the texture you got with the wet in wet. It's similar to the king of dispersion star look that your get by using salt! Very interesting. I could also use it to mix a chromatic black.
Yes - it creates some interesting patterns! And the fact it turns almost black is so useful (:
I found myself using it as a main component for portrait backgrounds (in the few occasions I choose to go with a dark background).
Also grabbing the Escoda !0 Rigger Angela Feht loves...been watching her loads!! Going to take her wc course asap.
Hope to get an Escoda brush at some point haha (:
These are harder to get in Israel.
I love the new brush, very good quality, I got the Versatil 10 rigger, its got a great point, like a round with longer bristles for looser works. I am learning values now. any color, but look at the value. I sent an ink piece to a YT artist/friend, she says my ability looks like more than 1.5 yrs, so yesterday I just bathed in the essense of achievement after 10k failed flowers! Haha! just a tiny adjustment to my focal point. I had isues, but then I saw how I could fix it- lowering the ground 5/8 in. :P
Great video, thanks! This is a strange color! I can't use it. But I did like your review, and now I really need to try to use it again. You made some great mixes, and I think it can be a really great color when I learn what to do with it. :)
Yes, it requires a little testing and experimentation 😊 Thank you! 🙏🏼
Hi Liron, will you feature any of granulating colors and there strengths on the paint show? I adore the way granulating colors look; however, it is not clear to me what all can be done with them. Thanks.
That’s a great idea for a video. I added it to my ideas list. Could be nice to have a video focusing on granulating colors in particular (: Thank you 🙏🏼
I just did a painting with it and it gets SO dark, it has a huge range since it gets so dark and you can lighten it to whatever point you want. But I find it to be granular in my personal expierience which I love!
Exactly what I love about it! (:
I've been tempted by this one but it's the same pigment and too similar to my Sennelier Dioxazine Purple, which is very intense. It's a beautiful paint though. Thanks for sharing.
I would indeed expect it to be similar, it’s Dioxazine Violet (:
My pleasure, thank you! 😊🙏🏼
Does it mix well with greens to product the shadow of a leaf?
I have the DS Indigo, and it is quite different from the Schminke one you used. DS Indigo is much bluer and darker, while the Schminke seems more green. I think the DS indigo would blend well with the Carbazole Violet.
Interesting. The DS Indigo is one I haven't tried yet.
From what I saw, it does look like it's going to be a good mixture.
I found a book I had bought several years ago and came across the other day. It is a VERY good text to have. There are at least one colour pix on each page, very often two. Somehow this author has the ability to explain a lot of things which in my thirty years of WC and AC had not, I now know, had a good understanding of. It is THE ACRYLICS MEDIA.BOOK by BARCLY SHEAKES, published by Watson-GUPTIL PUBLICATIONS in NEW YORK in 2000 in paperback. I have not had such a good of the . It may be out of print but principles of Acrylic Painting before. I thought of you immediately. If you can find this one. I heartily recommend it. You will find it helpful with watercolours. It likely worth looking into and will be a pleasure to have in your library. Mary from Toront

It is a paperback so not too expensive.

Thank you, I'll check it out! (:
ds bordeaux disperses wet on wet very well as well
I used to have Winsor Newton Artists grade dioxazine Violet in my palette. I've eliminated it since I tried the DS carb violet which has so much more life to it. The WN D. violet seemed dull, dead, more opaque.
Interesting, and adds to my slightly negative perception of W&N.
It’s not that they are bad necessarily. But I just wasn’t pleased with any of their paints I tried so far. Oh well 🙂
Hi I'm a beginner in watercolor. Can you tell me what would be a great combo of purple and green? I'd like to invest in two good colours.
I bought a tube of Carbazole Violet a few weeks ago, but have not used it yet. I need to give it a spin and at least do some mixes.
You can even try out a simple still life or monochromatic painting.
It works great for that (:
Hi Liron, I don't have Cabazole Violet in my collection of Daniel Smith paints. I tend to make my own secondary colors by using the essential 7 set that I got in the beginning of my most recent watercolor journey. If I remember correctly, Daniel Smith now has an essential 8 set. Is that correct?
I use wet in wet often in my watercolor paintings. Wet in wet works great for laying down initial layers in a painting. For example, when I was painting an adobe building, I mixed up a pale warm yellow with a touch of warm red. I spread water over the building and while it was still wet, I added the paint mix. When dry, it was a pale yellow-orange. I always start with pale and work towards darker.
That Carbazole Violet can be used to grey down yellow. In my case, I would only use a touch of it in place of a touch of red; or, I might use it in addition to the red. It's such a pretty color. It might even be able to be used when painting sunsets.
Yes, it’s possible to mix something very similar using the Essentials set (I don’t remember seeing an 8 ons).
It’s one if those paints that can have so many uses, and require testing out and seeing what works for you and what you like visually (:
Is it really semi transparent/granular?
Good use for negative painted snow flakes. Ha. reference to the outward veining of the first pigment. I can't think of any other use
Indeed (:
I use this one to darken things, it's very useful for that.
Trees in the distance
Indeed great for that (:
To make the Paint show interesting, perhaps the Pain show should begin. Where you make really bad mixes;)
Haha, you know what? I’m going to make a “Worst color mixes video” 😂😂 That’s a really good idea actually
I hv imperial purple. Do i need to buy this color? Or should i add any color to the kmperial purple to get this color?
Imperial Purple is somewhat duller. They are very close though. Perhaps just a touch of Quin Rose?
Further to my comment below, I know none of the art shops in TA seem to sell Daniel Smith. Have tried Arta, Canvas and other small shops in Jaffa and around.
Thanks for the heads up!
While I love the color and value range of carbazol/dioxyzene violet I don’t like the way it drys with a herd edge. I have to remember to blend the edge. But if I can learn to use the hard edge it’ll be great too. Also maybe it only happens on cellulose paper. Not sure about that.
Hmmm, I wouldn’t be surprised if the paper has something to do with it! (:
But it is a very strong and inherently dark pigment that takes care working with (like Phthalo Blue for example).
Hi Liron, I posted on an earlier video of yours as I live in TA and wonder if you are a member of Urban Sketchers and whether there is a chapter of this global group in Tel Aviv, as I'd love to join. So far, haven't found any reference to one. Perhaps we should start one?! Actually, wanted to know if there is anywhere in TA/Israel where you can buy Daniel Smith over the counter or whether you buy, as I do, on the Internet. Would love it if you could reply to this comment.
There's actually an Urban Sketching group that meets once a month (I somehow always miss the meet ups 😅)
Search on facebook:
רישום עירוני תל אביב
And you should find it.
Regarding DS, I believe there's no brick and mortar store for buying those, unfortunately.
I think the best option is to order from Jackson or Amazon.
And - you can find Schmincke in Pnina LaOman in Yafo.
I hope this helps (:
Certainly does. Thanks. Hope to bump into you on Rothschild one of these days. I'll stand you a beer for all your good advice!
Hahaha that’s on me because you just said it in your vid
😂😂 Good idea too!
You asked about what this color “might” be used for.
A personal favorite artist of mine is Awaisha_art on instagram. I’m wondering if she doesn’t use this color within her landscapes. I have asked her about colors she uses, but didn’t get a response so I don’t know for sure. And...I’m just starting out in watercolors, so take that into consideration😜
Hi Liron, Just like to leave you a comment :) I'm vegan so don't use most of these brands that use honey...and ox gall etc. I know I told you before.. I wanted you to know I still like watchng your videos. They are very informative :) and I want your algorithm to go up :)
I think wet in wet is good for fantasy backgrounds and loose florals also as you said foliage or backround trees. I use it for backgounds for bird paintings.

Thank you for all the support and encouragement 😊🙏🏼 It means a lot
