Pretty sure it was ruby.

Iris, a portrait participant, brought three jars that victor mixed into tubes for her - ruby, orange and red - but it was ruby that was on Rob's list that blew my socks of. I remember it as being rosey but warm. We substituted alizarin and mixed the dynamite ivory black and white with it for the caput mortuum purple I have become addicted to. There was a clarity and balance I was captivated by.

This is the mix of the first day, I am pretty sure it was ruby.
