Sennelier L’Aquarelle Watercolors are renowned for their luminous color, rich texture, and exceptional quality. Handmade in France with superior pigments and Kordofam gum arabic, these colors deliver brilliant intensity and remarkably smooth application. Sennelier’s signature use of honey not only preserves the paint but enhances its brilliance and workability.This enhanced formulation offers superior flow and blendability—perfect for both delicate glazes and bold color layering.
Rooted in the traditions of the Impressionist movement, Sennelier collaborated with artists from across the globe to develop a watercolor that captures the beauty of natural light. The result is a paint that offers vivid, transparent washes with rich, saturated color.

- Properties
- Cadmium Yellow is brilliant, dense, and opaque, with good tinting strength and very high hiding power. It is the artist's principal bright yellow and is available in light, medium, and dark shades. The deeper shades appear deep orange and have the greatest tinting strength. It is slow-drying in oil form and is used in both oil and watercolor form. A clean Cadmium Orange is created when Cadmium Yellow is mixed with Cadmium Red. Hues vary by brand. Cadmium pigments have been partially replaced by azo pigments, which are similar in lightfastness to the cadmium colors, cheaper, and non-toxic. Cadmium Yellow is usually available in a pure grade, or in a cadmium-barium mix. This mix has the same permanence with a lower tinting strength.
- Permanence
- Cadmium Yellow is lightfast and permanent in most forms, but like most cadmium colors, it will fade in fresco or mural painting. The deeper shades are the most permanent. The pale varieties have been known to fade with exposure to sunlight in conditions where moisture is able to penetrate the binder.
- Description
- Aurora Yellow, Cadmium Primrose Yellow, Cadmium Zinc Yellow, Lemon Yellow, Primrose Yellow. Deep Cadmium Yellow is sometimes called Orient Yellow.
