Tiger Lily

A vibrant orange-red with remarkable brilliance

Inspired by the fiery petals of summer tiger lilies, Tiger Lily is a bold, luminous orange-red that radiates warmth, energy, and joy. This handcrafted professional watercolour captures the glow of flowers basking in the summer sun, bringing vibrant life and movement to every painting.

Highly transparent and beautifully saturated, Tiger Lily flows effortlessly across the paper, creating glowing washes that retain their brilliance whether used at full strength or diluted into soft, sunlit tints. Its rich orange-red hue makes it an exceptional choice for florals, autumn foliage, sunsets, tropical subjects, birds, and expressive botanical paintings.

With its smooth handling and exceptional clarity, Tiger Lily layers beautifully with other colours, allowing artists to build depth while preserving the luminous quality that makes transparent watercolour so captivating.
