Daniel Smith Mayan Yellow (PY223) is a saturated yellow with a rich history. This beautiful watercolour revives the bold colour used by the ancient Mayan people to adorn their murals and sculpture. Mayan Yellow is a new formula and is based on ancient Mayan chemistry, but is modernised 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.
Lightfastness: Very Good
Staining: Non-Staining
