Tri-Art High Viscosity - Raw Sienna

Unlike burnt sienna, Raw Sienna is a much lighter, yellow earth pigment. Our variation has a muted orange-yellow mass tone with a golden, orange leaning undertone. Burnt Sienna can be used as a warmer alternative to Yellow Oxide in a limited palette, leaning more towards earth orange. All natural earth colours will vary slightly from batch to batch as they are unadulterated.
