Mixing on the wet paper was very enlightening! It really did give it a more nuanced appearance! I will definitely be practicing with your technique. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your kind comments. Yes Google translate does not make sense sometimes !🤣
You can also use different yellows, that will give you new shades of green.
I just used one, to keep it simple.
Just experiment and have fun! 🎨❤️

You made an excellent case for making your own greens....I never realized I could make my own green gold so easy! Thank you.

This helped me so much! Don’t have many greens & like mixing my own but as a beginner not always sure which blue to use which which yellow or mix on the paper! It does glow more doing it on the paper but lots of practice as did it once & got lots of different greens but using one yellow to get that many is better way than 5 tubes of greens. Tyvm

Excellent demo on mixing greens. Watch until the end.

What a wonderful exercise!! I love greens and this tutorial is wonderful. I understand that you have to start from different color palettes with 3 different “primaries” but with the same yellow color as a base in order to achieve different greens? What a desire to continue learning from your classes. I don't know English and the translator says strange things 😂😂😂 but little by little. Thank you

This video is very usefull. Thanks so much on this education, it can save lots of money by mixing own green. Once again thank you so much. Sending XOXO and stay safe!! 😘😘

i mean....you can mix a lot of greens, but there's a few buts. first off, phtalo green is a very versatile color, and you can manipulate it easily with just adding one extra color to have a huge range of uses, be it a blue for more of a beautiful sea green or turquoise, a yellow to make some intense grassy greens, or quinacridone rose to make neutral tint and have your darkest dark without using black or payne's gray. There's no reason to not have it in your palette beyond being a puritan about double primaries haha.

Then there's greenish single pigment variations like azo green py129 or winsor newton's aqua green (unregistered single phtalo pigment, WnN are the only manufacturer of this color), which both have tonal shifts in tints that are beautiful and you'll have a hard time replicating if at all. Add to that the fact that yellows are often times opaque or semi transparent, and you'll get some muddiness or granulation in those mixtures with blue (specially if you are using ultramarine or cobalt instead of phtalo blue). It is an effect you may be going for, but if you want translucent luminous tints in your glazes, phtalos and quinacridones are your best friends since they are the ones with the higher tinting strength, highest transparency, and most unique and intense hues (not to mention lightfastness). And those, come mostly in three groups: blues, green and roses/magentas. There is no point in skipping some variation of a phtalo green in your palette, be it yellow or blue shade or something like winsor's aqua green. It's a situation similar to that of po73, pyrrol orange, you simply cannot replicate that orange hue in watercolor with just yellow and red, even though you would be technically mixing an orange, and is just such a useful pigment to  have in your palette, very versatile.

On top of that, once you know what you are using and liking the most, convenience mixtures are such a time and resource saver (way less paint wasted rinsing that brush to not tint your yellow pan lol, way less waste in mixing way more than you need just trying to reach the right hue, etc, when you can start halfway there and adjust accordingly.), and the time saving aspect helps when doing wet washes and wet into wet effects too, specially if you are covering a bigger area like a background and not just a small corner of a sketch, since your paper will start to dry. Anyhow, i'm saying all this as a college educated professional artist, who also knew a variety of views from different generations and proffessors regarding this issue, from the most puritan of older folk to some more flexible people haha. and yeah, start your palette with a set of double primaries, then expand! never stop trying new paints, and to make the most of your money aim for single pigment colors unless you know which convenience mixture you are aiming for.

Anyhow...you don't need a bunch of greens, but absolutely do not close the door on them; chose them wisely. Don't buy them without checking the pigments in it beforehand, but don't just disregard them all or you'll be missing out for no reason really, unless you truly are on that tight of a budget then sure.

Wow..... It’s a wonderful painting. I really enjoyed it. You are so talented..stay sfe stay connect. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
