  1. I enjoyed this and it reminded me of how much fun I can have mixing colours. I totally agree about payne’s grey and yellow and seeing the addition of alizarin crimson or phthalo blue just gives it a lovely subtle hue, thanks Michelle.

  2. Interesting thank you. I have difficulty mixing the bright yellowy greens of new foliage. Do you have any suggestions?

    1. For the brightest green you can use a mix of Phthalo Blue (Green Shade) and either Hansa Yellow or Cadmium Yellow light, or Lemon Yellow.
