Description
This is a description of the Daniel Smith watercolour paint, Mayan Yellow (PY223). This paint is based on ancient Mayan chemistry, but is modernized to give a metal-free and eco-friendly paint. It is a natural looking yellow with a very slight green-brown cast, which is great for foliage highlights. The paint is lightfast and non-staining, and has good staining and granulating properties. The transparency is transparent.
