This sample is Pennonia Napkelte Sunrise, which is a bit disappointing. I had high expectations after liking Napnyugta Sunset so much. Napkelte Sunrise is yellow, but too pale under regular light to be much use. Under UV it’s OK, but the text is even harder to read the way it glows. This one would really only be good for highlighting and drawing.

Glad I only have a sample vial of this one.

Two photo collage of an Iroful swatch card with a line drawing of a paint pallet. In both photos, there is a blob of ink inside the drawing with some areas being slightly darker where more ink settled. On the right is text reading "Pennonia Napkelte Sunrise," followed by an "X" and a curlicue. In the top photo, the ink is yellow and pale. The text does not contrast much with the paper. It's legible, barely. In the bottom photo it is under UV light and the ink is an even brighter glowing yellow. The text is even more difficult to read.

On the left is text reading "Pennonia Napkelte Sunrise," followed by an "X" and a curlicue. In the top photo, the ink is yellow and pale. The text does not contrast much with the paper. It's legible, but not easily. In the bottom photo it is under UV light and the ink is glowing but more of a dull yellow. The text is even more difficult to read.
