Burnt Sienna is part of Tri-Art High Viscosity Professional Acrylic Paint, a heavy body acrylic with a thick, buttery consistency that holds brushstrokes and palette-knife texture. Built with high pigment loading and a fine grind, it stays bold and clean for impasto, scumbling, and confident brushwork.

Pigment profile: Mixed pigment colour (PR101, PBR7). Bias: Cool. Pigment family: Mineral. Semi-opaque handling, a good balance of coverage and depth for layered mixtures and scumbles. Medium tinting strength, mixes predictably across a wide range of palettes. Full staining, tends to leave a stronger stain in thin films and glazes. Lightfastness rating: 4. Sheen: Matte.
