The labels hadn't been changed when the pigment changed ! Here in the UK, there aren't any more of the PY153 pigment left.Pollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17876897576820426852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-302397941256075255.post-7055223947074418212018-04-13T20:52:35.386+01:002018-04-13T20:52:35.386+01:00Through poking around dusty shops and smaller pain...Through poking around dusty shops and smaller paint lines, I've managed to collect a stash of PY153 that should last me a good long while. Daler Rowney's Indian Yellow and Lukas Gamboge are both still made with PY153 and similar to the old WN paint, if you want to stock up.<br /><br />My other solution for warm yellows is PY150 plus PO71. PO71 (Transparent Pyrrol Orange/Permanent Orange/Translucent Orange) seems to come in two shades - the lighter, brighter strong orange from QoR and Lukas, or a more reddish shade from Schmincke and Daniel Smith. The lighter shade produces a more vibrant warm yellow. This mix is slightly more transparent and duochrome than the original PY153, but that's a quality I prefer.Lee Angoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12735391091599963495noreply@blogger.com
