Tri-Art High Viscosity - Golden Yellow

Although composed of entirely organic pigments, Golden Yellow is an earth yellow in character. Comprised of nickel azo yellow and quinacridone burnt orange, Golden Orange is a strongly orange leaning yellow enrobed in earthy, red-brown tones. Use as a richer, more vibrant, and fully transparent alternative to true earth pigments like Burnt Sienna and Yellow Ocher. Golden Yellow is ideal for mixing and glazing in landscape and portrait palettes to create vibrant earth and neutral tones. Not intended for airbrush or use with children.
