Description:

Cadmium Yellow Deep is a rich, warm yellow watercolour pigment with strong orange undertones, offering a deep, golden hue that adds intensity and warmth to any composition. This vibrant colour evokes the look of late afternoon sunlight, autumn leaves, and ripe fruit, making it an ideal choice for painting warm landscapes, florals, or any scene that requires a strong, glowing yellow.

With an opaque consistency, Cadmium Yellow Deep provides excellent coverage and allows for bold, saturated applications. Its high tinting strength ensures that even small amounts produce intense colour, while its warm undertones blend beautifully with reds to create fiery oranges or with blues to produce muted, earthy greens. The pigments opacity also allows it to layer effectively, standing out even in more complex compositions.

Favoured for its durability and lightfastness, Cadmium Yellow Deep maintains its vibrant hue over time, ensuring long-lasting brilliance in artworks. This deep yellow is perfect for adding warmth, energy, and richness to any watercolour painting. Whether used as a focal point or blended into subtle mixes, Cadmium Yellow Deep is a versatile, essential pigment for artists seeking bold, warm tones.
