Unfortunately I do not know how to mix quinacridone gold. I see that Golden paints manufacture that colour, but do not provide details

Golden Artist
Colors Is Forced
to Replace Quinacridone Gold

- New Berlin, NY, September 2, 2004 -

First the bad news: We have been forced to discontinue our most venerable color, a color we introduced to the marketplace, and one that soon became our signature color – Quinacridone Gold. The pigment manufacturer will no longer support the required pigment, and despite an exhaustive search, there is simply no other source to be found.

Now the good news: Through a vigilant effort, the Golden Lab, led by fearless director Jim Hayes, has created a well-matched solution to the original Quinacridone Gold. By blending a Quinacridone Gold Red Shade with Nickel Azo, the new blend called Quinacridone/Nickel Azo Gold achieves the wonderful characteristics of the original Quinacridone Gold, including a warm yellow-gold quality in the undertone as well as a tight tint.. Golden Artist Colors, Inc. is excited about the new formula and we hope you too will delight in its rich qualities. Watch for Quinacridone/Nickel Azo Gold in stores later this fall. Samples of the new color are available upon request through Customer Service.

Thank you anyway. I know that it can be done because I used to have a mixing chart, but I have lost it. I know it is made w/ the quinacridone magenta, hansa medium yellow and Phthalo Blue(Green Shade), but I can't remember how many parts of each. I know that Golden has a mixing chart for there main colors that can almost make any color, but I can't find anything over the net. Thanks again for trying and letting me know they discontined the Quinacridone Gold.
