Explanation:Tips for Mixing Greens
Mix Your Own Greens
There are many premixed greens available, for example chromium oxide green, sap green, viridian, phthalo green, emerald green, the list goes on. With so many greens which do you choose from? Personally I like to mix my own with yellow and blue as this makes the colour look more natural and it’s more likely to be harmonious with the other colours on my palette.
Having said that the one premixed green I do use is phthalo green as it’s great for increasing that saturation if your green needs a kick and it’s versatile. I never use this colour on its own, only to add to an existing green mix.
Keep it Simple
Part of the other reason I mix my own greens is that I generally use a limited palette and for two reasons. One is that I find it less confusing with fewer colours on my palette as well as it helping me to give me a better understanding of colour. The second reason is that with fewer colours on my palette my colour mixtures are more likely to contain common colours which means a more harmonious and cohesive painting.
Get Some Red in Your Greens
One last tip I can recommend when mixing greens is to round off the mixture by adding a red element into it. As red is the complimentary opposite to green on the colour wheel I found that my green mixtures to look more natural and harmonious when I add a red element into the mix. Very often I will round off my green mixture with a colour that contains red such as cadmium orange, quinacridone crimson and / or burnt sienna.
