Michael Harding Handmade Oil 40ml tube- Lemon Yellow 40ml (series 1)

Ⓥ VEGAN

With its low tint and covering power mix with Magenta and the cooler reds to produce modulated greys artists sometimes seek for certain passages of flesh painting.

By itself, it’s an acidic looking yellow with weirdly green overtones. 

The only yellow chrome paint that doesn’t discolour.

Inorganic – Sometimes known as Barium Yellow, as it is Barium Chromate. It was introduced into painting after the Lead Chromates, circa 1820.

Unlike Lead Chromates, though, Barium has proven permanent and non-reactive. Most colourmen consider this yellow obsolete, and Michael Harding are probably the only one still making it.
