I'm a lead white fan. It's safe if used safely. Don't eat around it, use an Art Guard barrier, and wash your hands thoroughly after painting. I've had my blood tested for lead periodically and there's nothing there (blood testing for lead is common and inexpensive).
I use bismuth yellow all the time, mostly as an acrylic ink. One great thing about it is that it settles quickly both in the bottle and if you paint wet on wet, the yellow goes powdery and flaky it looks great if you want an abstract haze effect and it would also be great for fiery embers. It looks very similar to cadmium yellow light PY35
Bismuth Vanadate Yellow PY184 has gained popularity in watercolor. Its an opaque yellow that leans green. In watercolor it mixes nice vibrant colors. Holbein sells it in Acrylic... haven't seen it in many other brands. PR256 is Pyrolle red rubin. Compared to normal PR254/255 its a bit more violet leaning. Holbein sells it in their heavy body acrylics. Its one of my favorites. Some brands sell it as Pyroll Crimson and its a popular replacement for Alizerin.

These paints are designed for wet into wet paintings, painters...they all stay wet for days.
