If a lighter color is desired, more white can always be mixed in. Our cadmiums are imported from England. These are the cleanest and brightest of any cadmiums we tested. They are chemically pure and full strength. Several of the shades are made specially for us so that the spectrum of light yellow to deep red is made up of distinct steps.
All cadmiums are opaque.
Cadmium Lemon Slightly off key and acidic next to the other yellows. It creates hard accents. Next to cadmium greens it is more on key and turns sweeter. By itself it has a sense of purity and clarity, without the usual hint of greenishness that would sour it. In mixes, however, it has a bias toward green.
