Daniel Smith Watercolour Paint 15ml Series 2 - Burgundy Yellow Ochre is a professional extra fine watercolour featuring a warm, glowing earth yellow with a beautifully natural character. Made with genuine PY43 pigment, this transparent ochre offers a clean, sunny light wash and a rich golden earth tone in stronger applications, making it an excellent choice for landscapes, architecture, skin tones, dry grasses, stonework and warm natural light effects. Its colour has a subtle vineyard warmth that makes it especially appealing for artists painting rustic scenery, autumn fields, sunlit buildings and soft atmospheric studies.

Handmade in Seattle, Washington, Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolours are renowned for their exceptional pigment quality, superior brushing properties and excellent lightfastness. Burgundy Yellow Ochre is surprisingly smooth in washes for a granulating earth colour, giving artists the best of both worlds: a luminous transparent appearance with the beautiful texture and depth that granulation brings. As a non-staining watercolour, it also lifts more easily than many modern pigments, making it highly versatile for glazing, layering and traditional watercolour techniques.

This distinctive natural ochre was originally mined from a deep vein near the Loire River in western Burgundy, giving it a unique historical and geographical character that sets it apart from standard yellow ochres. This 15ml Series 2 tube is a valuable addition to any professional watercolour palette, especially for artists who love earthy, luminous and expressive colours. Daniel Smith Burgundy Yellow Ochre mixes beautifully with blues, reds and browns to create sophisticated neutrals, warm greens and glowing landscape tones, making it a versatile and elegant choice for professional watercolour painting.
