Manufacturer Description

From Daniel Smith:
Don’t let the old line: made from the urine of cows fed an exclusive diet of mango leaves deter you from adding Indian Yellow to your palette; DANIEL SMITH’s vat pigmented Indian Yellow is a new formula. This medium to high tinting yellow lends a rusty orange edge to undisturbed puddles, a curious property when painting ripe fruit and vegetation. Autumn leaves and floral close-ups make great study subjects as you explore this pure chroma, ever so slightly granular yellow. Indian Yellow wets well and flows evenly.
