Stoneground - Nickel Titan Yellow (Synthetic - Half Pan)

Nickel Titanium Yellow can be used full strength for a pop of lemon yellow, or use it diluted for soft and subtle washes. This cool, buttery yellow is the perfect colour for capturing spring botanicals, or for use in landscape paintings. Nickel Titanium Yellow is quite opaque when compared to other modern yellow pigments, and is less intense than Hansa Yellow Light.

Artist Notes: Combined with Burnt Sienna Crimson, Nickel Titanium Yellow creates a beautiful warm yellow reminiscent of Naples Yellow. Mixing well with other colours, Nickel Titanium Yellow is valuable for creating interesting and pretty greens when combined with Cobalt Aquamarine or Cerulean Blue.

Paint Maker’s Notes: Nickel Titanium Yellow is considered to be the brightest and cleanest of the inorganic pigments, and was one of several pigments developed during the 1960s in response to the demand for more durable and lightfast colours.
