Hi there! Today we finally have another episode of The Paint Show!
And this time I'm reviewing a paint I've been really waiting to review - Nickel Azo Yellow, by Daniel Smith.
🎨 NICKEL AZO YELLOW 🎨
I got this one in my recent US vacation, alongside Phthalo Blue and Alizarin Crimson.
I first saw this paint in one of Steve Mitchel's (The Mind of Watercolor) videos, and wanted to try it out.
I have too many more opaque yellows, and warmer yellows. This one's more on the neutral side, and so it's great for me.
🎨 PAINT INFO 🎨
- Pigment: PY150 (Nickel Azomethine Yellow)
- Excellent Lightfastness (in fact - one of the most lightfast yellows out there)
- Transparent
- Low staining
- Non-granutaling
🎨 WHERE TO GET IT 🎨
I was only able to find the 5ml tube online. The 15ml is REALLY PRICEY.
You can get the 5ml tube on Amazon here (affiliate link):
amzn.to/2N3yVIM
If you live in the US and / or can get it locally - I'd recommend that.
🎨 CONCLUSION 🎨
I find this to be a very useful yellow to have. It's neutral, vibrant, transparent, lightfast. It's everything you can ask for from a yellow! (:
I also briefly show a comparison with the Hansa Yellow Medium, which is another good yellow to have.
Nickel Azo Yellow is superior in my opinion, as it has a larger range of values (can get darker than Hansa Yellow Medium). It's also transparent (unlike Hansa which is semi-transparent) so if you're looking for that - that's a good choice.
In any case, I hope you enjoyed this episode of The Paint Show, and hope to do many more soon! (:
Take care and we'll talk soon,
- Liron

I find paint videos very helpful when it comes to decision making for purchases and palette selection. This one is especially helpful along with the the ones by Denise Soden (In Liquid Color) and the comparison videos from Dr. Oto Kano. Thanks.
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼
Denise and Too are amazing!
I enjoy Azo Yellow on my palette especially in my autumn landscapes! I love how it has a brilliant as well as rich quality about it. Very fun! Thanks for sharing your take on this color. Great video. 😄
Yes, it seems like such a useful yellow, and sounds great for autumn landscapes.
Thank you (:
My favourite Ni Azo Yellow mixture is with Indanthrone Blue, the most gorgeous greens I've ever seen. Also, mixing it with cool reds gives some really interesting oranges. Cheers~~
Sounds interesting! I'll have to try out Indathrone blue, have been recommended it for ages (:
Yeah, Paint Show is back! Thank you Liron!
Thank YOU for watching (:
I'm happy to bring it back. More episodes coming soon
Oh I love this color! It is kind of similar to Yellow Ochre when fully saturated, but then almost a cool lemony yellow when diluted! I'm choosing this color as my only yellow in my palette because it can mix both oranges and greens well. I just have to wait for my next birthday or holiday to get it, lol...
Haha =P
Well, it's worth the wait!
I already did 5 paintings using it, and it's just perfect. It's the yellow I've been looking for all this time.
Transparent, vibrant, glowing, slightly warm.
Nickel azo yellow is my favorite! You should try the white nights indian yellow is py150 and it is lovely. I have both the Daniel smith and white nights and prefer the white nights.
It's interesting to watch this color change before your eyes. I have a half pan of it and it surprises me every time I use it.
Haha I can now relate.
When I first saw it coming out of the tube I was like: "What is that?!" haha.
But sure enough - it delivered (:
I’ve been curious about Daniel Smith nickel azo yellow... I have azo yellow and now I can see the difference. I also have quin gold that also goes a little brown which is great! Thanks for this, Liron!
Happy this helped you (:
Thank you
Excellent review! Mine just came this morning and im playing around with it!
Thank you! 😊🙏🏼 I hope you enjoy the paint!
Its a very nice yellow, I have it and I also have it in a Quin Gold hue. Both colours make excellent warm greens and oranges.
I really start to love a lot of green - blue - yellow combos! (:
Liron, did your Daniel Smith NIckel Azo Yellow paint have a light shimmer to it? I bought that same paint and it has a light pearlescent effect to it.
I am surprised that I have so many yellows and how much I love them. I use Indian yellow and Gamboge and I think this Azo yellow is something like both... Maybe I should give it a try! It's great to see your colour reviews again. ^_^ More please!
Thank you so much (:
I'm a big fan of warm yellows (such as Indian, Gamboge and even Cadmium), and this one just nailed it for me.
It made me realize that what was missing for me with some of the others is transparency.
(though I still love them and will keep using them in the future)
Greetings from Cleveland! I too love DS nickel azo yellow! I also love your shirt!
very nice colour that contributes a lot to some great autumn colour. thanks for sharing
My pleasure (:
This was a real discover for me.
Thank you!
Just to note, there is another "azo" yellow, Benzimidazolone yellow PY151, that is a more primary yellow (it is a staple for my yellow). Thanks for showing this other azo yellow so I could compare it.
Interesting! So how does it compare to this one? A little more neutral?
Thank you
@@LironYan It s a bit more of a middle yellow, and doesn't have that ochre color right out of the tube. I like it much better than Lemon Yellow. Kinda right between lemon and cadmium yellow.
Sounds great too (:
white nights has the same pigment and hue it’s called indian yellow! as an urban sketcher it is my standard “cool” yellow even though it’s more of a neutral yellow bc it just makes my sketches look very glowy and it’s so perfect for base of trees/bushes! id like to try daniel smith’s though!!
I just bought a 5ml tube of this color, they last me a huge amount of time I can fill 2 half pans with them and I am so excited for it to arrive
Lyron, whats the bigger differences you noticed when you compared Nickel Azo vs the Hansa Yellow?
I watch Mind of Watercolor as will and he always uses M Graham paints but he does use this color quite often. I always write down the colors he is using on any painting and I think he has every color, brush, paper, gouache, ink, and pen known in the civilized world. I can only dream. This color reminds me a little of Indian Yellow
I have Qor's Nickel Azo Yellow, and that is PY150, series 3. It's my favorite color so far in my artist quality pallet I'm building.
my favourite yellow..and the paint show :) I have the qor which is beautiful too
Awesome! I hear many have the QoR version of this one.
Sounds good if it's your fav yellow (:
What size is the brush you’re using, please?
if i have nickel azo yellow in a limited watercolour palette, do i have to add yellow ochre? or is it not needed?
I think this is all super subjective! If you feel like Nickel Azo Yellow fulfills that need - it indeed does (:
I personally find them different. I currently have Nickel Azo Yellow, and ran out of Yellow Ochre a while ago, and forgot to purchase more 😂 And I miss it!
@@LironYan i see, thank you very much!
I have a trio of yellows (mine are QOR). This one on the orange side, Green Gold PY129 on the green side, and 'Benzi' PY154 in the middle.
How does the QoR Benzi compare to this one? Are there any major differences? (:
I've never had DS versions of those colours. I would describe the 129 and 150 as being 'textured', ie can get a pronounced colour change when the paint is thick and thin in the same area of the painting. The Benzi 154 on the other hand is very smooth and even bright 'yellow' yellow (no orange or green), a bit opaque, doesn't change colour much when thinned. I could mix a good 150 with 129 and Benzi Orange 62.
I m really chocked here because DS has a low stainning yellow azo while W&N has strong stainning properties. It seems to be a difference bewteen "Nickel" Azo Yellow and Azo Yellow..
Love this in the Qor line. Thank you!
How do they compare? Any significant differences? (:
My pleasure!
@@LironYan I apologize I didn't see this until now. As for the differences it's hard for me to tell, I'm still new to watercolors, but the Qor NAY looks almost greenish out of the tube to my eyes. I heard Lindsay Weirich describe it, saying that in light washes it looks more like a cool yellow...but with more pigment it's a warmer yellow, not sure if that is just for Qors or for all NAY. I gotta say she looks to be right! I was thinking to remove the cool yellow from my palette (cad yellow primrose by Qor, it's really opaque.) and only having this one, but being new to this medium I figured I better wait on that decision lol. Thank you for all you do, I'm learning quite a bit from you. Have a great day!😊👍
Haha - that's very interesting. A very unique color for both brands.
I've never really seen such a color difference when talking about different paint-water ration (:
And thank you so much - really happy I can help!
My QOR azo yellow has two main differences. It has a browner masstone (almost a bit granulated too) and it flows in that crazy ‘tentacle’ way that QOR tends to do. This means you don’t get as clear/smooth a wash as you do with the Daniel smith version. Daniel Smith is the better one for glowing sunlit underpainting, especially behind foliage in landscapes/nature studies. Then use it with your blues for harmonious greens in the mid/foreground.
One of my favorites 😁
It's indeed beautiful (:
Great episode Liron At first when I saw the label colour I was expecting something like Naples yellow but Its more like a Quin gold. In some respects it is similar to some of my yellow ochre or raw sienna's but with such an amazing colour depth. I am looking for something like that to add to my Autumn landscape colours now we're reaching that time of year. I have been looking at Quin gold and Green Gold, I normally mix these hues but looking for something with a bit more glow and vibrancy as my mixes can be a little dull and flat. Any ideas Liron?
Hmmm, I would actually go with this one for the purposes you mentioned (:
It's more vibrant than Hansas and glows more than Ochres.
It also mixes very nice greens and oranges that could totally work for autumn landscapes.
I would try mixing it with a cool blue for more vibrant results, especially if you say your mixes are dull.
That and a cool red will work wonders. I really find this one miraculous haha.
Hello Liron, I've been following your very useful videos since the pandemic began, when I started to paint with watercolors. I am building a color palette, and now I saw this demo i was wondering if you could replace Indian Yellow and Hansa Yellow Deep with Nickel Azo Yellow. I have Sennelier's Indian Yellow (PY154, PY153), but sometimes doesn't look punchy enough, so i'm considering a change to the DS options, but the Hansa is semitransparent and this one is not (acording to DS chart), which is still confusing for me. I would really apreciate your insight in this matter. Thank you!!
Just checked Daniel Smith website, and rhey do not list Nickel Azo PY150, they only list PY151 Azo Yellow. Has it been discontinued?
Hmmm, interesting. I’ll have to check that (:
It's right here:
danielsmith.com/nickel-azo-yellow-15ml-tube-daniel-smith-extra-fine-watercolor/
looks gorgeous.. I just looked it up to try and find it.. but Jerry's Artarama sell it but only the Azo Yellow not the Nickel Azo Yellow.. which would be such a shame.. if they have discontinued it.
That's strange, it's the second time I hear that!
I hope they're continuing it, as it's a REALLY USEFUL paint.
Sorry, I meant green-gold. Jennifer
Is Azo yellow warm like new gamboge or is it cooler ? And how does it compare to azo green is it significantly warmer than azo green ?
If you mean the Azo Yellow that is Dan. Smith's PY151, it's more neutral yellow (though slightly cooler than PY154) and New Gamboge looks much more orange
Azo Green that is PY129 is a very yellowish green; really a very different color. It has the vibrancy that Nickel Azo Yellow has, but with a greenish hue
If it is episode 48 what was episode 47, because I cannot find it?
It was actually a mistake, fixed it now 😅
Thank you for letting me know (and nice catch! I'm impressed) 🙏🏼😊
(told you I'm rusty in TPS)
I’m wondering how nickel azo compares to ds quinacridone gold?? Great video! Beautiful colors! 🧡🍂🍁
I think Nickel Azo Yellow is just a little more yellow (:
It's still quite warm, and has more of an orange feel to it - compared to Lemon Yellow for example.
But when compared to Quin. Gold (which seems to be infinitely popular haha), it's less orange and more yellow.
It can be a little confusing because it (Nickel) also glows a lot, and is very vibrant, and transparent.
Quinacridone gold is actually a mix of Nickel azo yellow and Quinacridone burnt orange :)
Hi Liron, is that a green good? Jennifer
It's not really green (:
It feels a little warm, so maybe has a bit of an orange feel to it when heavily saturated.
But it mixes BEAUTIFUL greens
Beautiful color. Now I want to try it. :/
That's the problem with The Paint Show =P
I'm not a fan of this paint. I find it to look too much like yellow ocher, which I hate, and I found it to be muddy looking. If you can put it down in one layer and leave it...then it's okay but turns muddy with layering.
Yeah it has a few drawbacks.
It's main advantage is producing a DARK yellow very fast.
But it will sometimes need to be neutralized to make more sense in the darks, OR use very cleanly like you say - for the darks.
