Description:

A bright, luminous yellow watercolour pigment known for its vibrant clarity and versatility. This semi-transparent pigment offers a pure, slightly greenish-yellow hue, making it an ideal choice for capturing sunlight, fresh foliage, and vivid highlights. Its clean, modern profile ensures that it stands out both on its own and as a powerful mixing colour.

Quinophthalone Yellow provides smooth, even washes with a glowing intensity that holds up even when diluted for lighter applications. Its excellent tinting strength makes it a valuable addition to any palette, capable of producing a wide range of natural greens, warm oranges, and neutral tones when mixed with blues, reds, or earth pigments.

With excellent lightfastness, Quinophthalone Yellow ensures long-lasting brilliance, making it a dependable choice for professional and archival-quality artwork. This pigment’s balance of vibrancy and subtle transparency makes it a must-have for artists seeking to infuse their work with warmth, light, and dynamic energy.
