Description:

Cadmium Lemon is a vivid, bright yellow watercolour pigment known for its striking intensity and opacity. With a cool undertone, this vibrant hue captures the essence of sunlight and brings a fresh, cheerful quality to any composition. Cadmium Lemon is particularly prized for its ability to create brilliant highlights and is an excellent choice for depicting the bright colours of flowers, citrus fruits, and sunny landscapes.

The pigment's strong tinting strength allows for vibrant mixes, making it easy to achieve a wide range of shades from warm yellows to lively greens when blended with blues. Its opaque nature provides good coverage, enabling artists to apply it confidently in both washes and detailed work without losing luminosity.

Cadmium Lemon is highly regarded for its excellent lightfastness, ensuring that the colour remains stable and bright over time. Artists often appreciate its versatility, as it can stand alone in bold applications or be mixed with other colours to create soft, nuanced tones. Whether used in vibrant compositions or to add pops of brightness, Cadmium Lemon is a staple in many watercolour palettes, bringing a radiant energy to artwork.

Very pleased

I’m a hobbyist painter and I usually use pan paints, I bought this to refill a pan that had had W&N Cotman paint in it. I have only swatched this new cadmium lemon and done some mixes with other tube paints I have and I really like the vivid colour, amount of opacity and ease of use. I’ve not had the chance to try re-wetting it, but I’m sure it will perform just as well.
Excellent service from Jackman’s Art Materials, I asked a question and received a prompt reply and then my order arrived in the post in just a couple of days. Thank you, I’ll be a returning customer.
