Description
The transparent non-staining properties of this cool yellow can effectively warm darker hues without affecting their transparency. Landscape artists rely on Aureolin to successfully glaze their watercolours. This pigment quality, along with the ability to lift and to create soft edges, makes Aureolin especially useful to portrait and floral painters as well. | ASTM Lightfastness Rating:Very Good Transparency:Semi-transparent Granulating:No Staining:Non-staining (PY40) |

Pretty sure this is not rated as a lightfast colour. So it may be pretty at first, but it turns brownish and fades after a short time. Shame such a great paint brand keeps advertising and making it. Beginners should maybe avoid so they don't get used to it, and anyone selling/gifting paintings made with it should add a warning so buyers/recipients know it will fade and brown off. So many better DS yellows to go with.

This is a fantastic cool transparent yellow. I use this mixed with a tiny bit of cobalt for background.

I normally use a different manufacturer but this product is cheaper through Senior Art supplies and the quality seems to be as good.
