Hansa Yellow is considered the ‘perfect yellow’, offering more control when mixing. Painters admire the purity of this primary pigment and ability to adjust its temperature while avoiding a gray from a hidden complement. Think of a yellow pepper.

Color: Quinacridone Magenta

The transparent non-staining properties of this cool yellow can effectively warm darker hues without affecting their transparency. Landscape artists often rely on Aureolin to successfully glaze their watercolors or as a light wash in underpainting, to add the appearance of sunshine. 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.
