Description

Isoindoline Yellow (P.Y. 139) is a vibrant, high-performance pigment known for its remarkable "duochrome" personality. Unlike standard industrial yellows, our handmade formulation highlights a self-confident mid-yellow undertone that avoids the heavy orange lean often associated with this pigment. This transparency and tonal range make it a versatile powerhouse for everything from glowing sunlight effects to delicate, atmospheric glazes.

Where this paint truly shines is in the mix. Isoindoline Yellow is uniquely dynamic when combined with Phthalo blues and greens, yielding incredibly lively, natural greens that retain a luminous quality rarely found in other yellow pigments. It transitions smoothly from a saturated, intense mass-tone to soft, velvety layers when diluted, maintaining its individual character throughout.

With outstanding lightfastness and high tinting strength, Isoindoline Yellow ensures your work remains brilliant for generations. Whether you are seeking a primary yellow with more "soul" or an essential mixing partner for natural landscapes, this (P.Y. 139) offering provides a level of versatility and transparency that allows your palette to breathe.
