I have added DS Aureolin here though it could equally be in with the mid yellows - either way it is not recommended as PY40 is not a reliable pigment. I don't like the Nickel titanate Yellows PY 53 at all - it is weak and ugly. Bismuth Yellow is more opaque, as are the genuine Cadmium Yellow Light colours. It is a bright, pure lemon yellow with plenty of tinting strength. Art Spectrum use the same pigment in their Lemon Yellow. My favourite is Hansa Yellow Light PY3, made by Daniel Smith or Da Vinci. These colours lean towards green and have no apparent red in them so will make very bright greens when mixed with a cool blue and more neutral greens when mixed with a warm blue. The cool yellow range includes many lemon yellows, cadmium light, hansa light and so on.
You also have a choice of staining or non-staining colours and to some extent granulating or not. I use single pigment colours where possible.
You also have the choice of single pigment and mixed pigment colours. You have the choice of opaque or transparent yellows, with the very popular cadmiums being more opaque. I have also added all these and more to my website so you can compare them here. I will post about earth yellows separately. I have posted about mid yellows in a primary triad palette, but here I will show comparisons of a full range of yellows, including warm and cool yellows.
