Description
Deep, rich, and endlessly versatile, Burnt Umber is the perfect earthy brown for adding warmth and depth to your paintings. Whether you're grounding a composition with deep foreground tones, painting textured tree trunks, or toning down overly bright colors, this luxurious chocolate brown is a must-have for any palette.
Jen’s Insight:
"Burnt Umber is that perfect rich, chocolate brown that I use all the time. It’s key for tree trunks, fall landscapes, and darkening greens when they turn too minty. We always start with dark tones first, and Burnt Umber is part of that essential first layer—it builds depth and contrast before highlights bring everything to life." – Jen Vranes, Creator of DabblePaints™
Why You’ll Love Burnt Umber:
Perfect for Depth & Shadow: An essential base for dark tones, grounding compositions, and creating rich, dimensional layers.
Essential for Autumn & Earthy Scenes: A key color for fall landscapes, tree trunks, and golden fields.
Ideal for Muting & Mixing: Tone down overly bright greens or blues for a more natural, balanced look.
Versatile & Layer-Friendly: Works beautifully in underpaintings and provides the foundation for highlights and midtones.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY...
A growing number of dabblers are enjoying their creative journey with us!
Love everything about this paint and it’s one of my favorite colors to work with! It’s rich and glossy in appearance and leaves all of my art looking professionally polished! I DO NOT use anything else- absolutely love it.
I love using burnt umber Let’s Dabble paint to create dark tree trunks, mixing a little ultramarine blue and purple creates the perfect shade to start the trunk. Then just adding a few highlights, perfection is met. Dabble paints are so smooth with consistent color I get excited everytime I open a bottle of Let’s Dabble Paint.
The Let’s Dabble Paints are rich in color and have an amazing creamy texture that works beautifully with a palette knife. I love the mini palette knives I can use to make cards or small wooden paintings.
I highly recommend Let’s Dabble Paints, Palette Knives, and Brushes.
Dabble’s Burnt Umber is gorgeous! It is rich in pigment and looks good enough to eat. Like all Dabble paints it is creamy, smooth and thick. Beautiful!
I LOVE all the Dabble Products. The paints are just Wonderful and easy to use. Also Love the Gloss Gel. So creamy and nice. Have not tried the Modeling paste as yet, because I still have a lot of the old Gallon sized brand.
You know you just can't seem to paint without burnt umber. So chocolatey creamy paint. Love it even more every time I use it . ALL the Dabble paints make you just paint a little bit better.
