About this colour

Jaune Brilliant meaning 'brilliant yellow' in French is a radiant, warm yellow with an opaque character that sets it apart from other watercolour yellows. Unlike the transparent yellows that dominate the palette, Jaune Brilliant has genuine covering power, making it one of the few watercolour pigments capable of painting light tones over dark washes.

A deeper, golden amber with warm orange undertones, Jaune Brilliant is ideal for sunsets, autumn foliage, and luminous skin tones - bringing a richness and warmth to the palette that few yellows can match.

Suitable for professional artists and beginners alike. The creamy, soft consistency flows effortlessly from brush to paper, and mix beautifully mix well with the other colours to create endless warm-toned possibilities.

Product features

Highly pigmented & vibrant

Each 15 ml tube delivers exceptional colour intensity - vivid at full strength and at the same time luminous and clear when diluted.                  

Endless colour possibilities

Intermixes cleanly across the entire range of colours for limitless warm-toned and neutral combinations.

Opaque character

One of the rare opaque yellows in watercolour - paint pale, luminous tones directly over dark washes.              

Non-toxic formula

Made with non-toxic additives and safe for all ages and working environments.

Artist grade quality

Professional-grade transparency and vibrancy, perfect for professional artists and beginners exploring the medium.                  

Creamy, soft consistency

Higher glycerine binder than pans and therefore have buttery soft texture that disperses effortlessly in water.

Supreme lightfastness

Highly lightfast pigments rated Excellent which means your artwork stays brilliant for decades.

Perfect for large areas

A tiny squeeze goes a long way. Ideal for smooth, even washes across large sections of a painting.

Why choose tubes?

Watercolour tubes contain more glycerine binder than pans, giving the paint a soft, creamy texture that mixes instantly with water. A small amount from the tube goes a very long way - making tubes ideal for large washes and expressive, generous brushwork.

Leave it to dry - reactivate anytime

Squeeze out what you need and leave the rest on your palette. When the paint dries, simply mist with a little water and it reactivates fully - as workable as when it was first squeezed. No cleaning needed between sessions, and nothing is ever wasted.

Refill your pans

Use tubes to top up empty half- or full-pans in your travel or studio palette. Squeeze into the pan, let the paint cure for a few days, and you have freshly loaded pans ready for use - far more economical than buying replacement pans.

Beautiful pastels with white

Mix Jaune Brilliant with White to unlock a range of delicate, warm pastel tints - from soft butter yellow to pale champagne. It yields warm peach and apricot tones that are perfect for portrait work, floral studies, and luminous skies.
