Handmade Watercolour Paint – Green Palette
This is a well balanced collection of four green shades ranging from warm to cool.
Having numerous greens in your watercolour palette is always useful as they help to depict shadows, textures and tonal values in landscapes, foliage, water and even portraiture.
The four green shades are:
Art Scribe Green Number 01 (Phthalo Hansa)PB15 PY74. A warm fresh green with yellow under tones. Semi-transparent and non granulating. Think of sunlight through newly unfurled leaves.
Lemon Viridian PG18 PY3. A green whose tone is cool and full of life. It is semi-transparent and slightly granulating. Use Viridian, Yellow Shade for a clean green with a soft glow.
Green Oxide (Chrome Green) PG17. A mid tone, earthy green. Highly opaque with granulation and good tinting strength. Try mixing Green Oxide with other colours to soften them and create other greens.
Heliogen Green (Phthalo Green Dark) PG7. A dark bluish green. It is transparent and none granulating. When thinned with water, Heliogen green becomes beautifully vibrant. Try mixing it with Ultramarine blue to create turquoise.
Handmade watercolour paint – green palette comes in a pocket sized tin. The four half pans are secured by magnets therefore arranging or replacing colours is easy. The characteristics of each colour is illustrated by a hand painted insert within your tin.
Your tin of handmade watercolours will arrive through the door in a letterbox friendly box.
We make our watercolours in small batches using the traditional process of hand mulling and using our own binder in which to suspend the pigments. Find out how we make our watercolours in About.
