W&N Artist’s Water Color14ml AUREOLIN #016
Product Description:
Aureolin Yellow, sometimes called Cobalt Yellow, never gained popularity in oil painting, but it is used extensively in watercolor work. Aureolin Yellow is a very pure yellow with good light fastness, and is highly valued for its transparency. It replaced an Asian gum pigment in the 19th century, and was known as the only color that could reliably be substituted for Indian Yellow. Aureolin Yellow remained popular, despite its price, until the introduction on Cadmium pigments. It is an excellent mixing color and has superior tinting qualities as a watercolor. Aureolin Yellow's transparency make it a perfect glaze, and its mixing qualities do not effect the colors it is combined with. Its transparency also makes lovely, soft edges, making it useful for portrait and floral painters.
