While its mixing uses are limited, Yellow Ochre works well with transparent pigments.
Try mixing transparent, medium-tinting Yellow Ochre with equally transparent, medium-tinting Viridian. Somewhat neutral, Yellow Ochre reacts beautifully with Cerulean Blue when spattered into the damp paint. Yellow Ochres tend to be opaque or whitened in other brands - DANIEL SMITH Yellow Ochre is the best!
