Description

Diarylide Yellow is a vibrant, warm watercolour pigment known for its intense, golden-yellow hue with a slightly orange undertone. With brilliant saturation and strong tinting strength, it creates bold, eye-catching washes, making it perfect for depicting sunlight, flowers, or autumn leaves. This warm, golden glow adds a cheerful, radiant quality to any composition.

With its semi-transparent nature, Diarylide Yellow allows for smooth layering in glazes or rich, opaque strokes in concentrated applications. It mixes beautifully with reds to create vibrant oranges or with blues to produce vivid greens. This versatility makes it ideal for landscapes, botanical scenes, and warm, natural tones in any artwork.

Notably, Diarylide Yellow offers excellent lightfastness, ensuring that its vivid colour remains stable and vibrant for years to come. Whether used alone or blended with other colours, it provides a brilliant highlight or deep, sunny mixes, bringing energy and warmth to any watercolour palette.

We Recommend
