Found a Youtube video by Steve Mitchell Design on mixing lively greens. I pulled out my yellows and blues, prontissimo! Played with it a bit last night, and. Uh Hum, I mean I practiced last night, and again this afternoon.

Hello! (thumping forehead)

I always reach for old Faithful. Sap Green. I LOVE Sap Green. I often will add yellow or blue, but having started with Sap, I can’t really say that is mixing my greens.

(Having shrimp salad tonight. Lively mixed greens are nice there too! Run Forrest, Run!)

I wasn’t thinking of aerial perspective, or light direction with these.  I Focused just on creating mixes. As you can see, I need A LOT more practice. (YAY)

Hope you had a Happy Monday!
