65 Getting greens right

IN recent entries I have mentioned using a new palette of colors to achieve more vibrant greens. In this video I expand on that idea and overpaint an old painting where the greens are quite gray.


I don’t want anyone to think I am advocating an exact formula for every lighting condition. Obviously this basic recipe will be greatly modified depending on the light. But it is a great step forward for those of us who either tend to gray greens too much or use greens with too high saturation. Additionally if you are tired of relying on tube colors the information here should prove of some value.
