Easy watercolour tips, mixing greens

Easy watercolour tips on how to mix greens. In this video Wendy demonstrates how to easily mix natural looking greens using prussian blue and a variety of yellows. She also shows how to mix very dark greens using these mixes with burnt sienna. Finally we take a look at some of her work where she has used these colour mixes.

The best video Re: Mixing Greens.....easy to grasp.

[@WendyPowellJones]

Thank you 😀👍

[@MaryGadsby]

Thank you for this helpful tip! PS, lovely paintings too.

[@labtrainer09]

VERY helpful; Thank you. I tend to use a lot of green in my landscapes, and I'm forever forgetting how I mixed the different shades. Your advice on making a labeled color sheet is excellent, and I won't put off doing so any longer. I also appreciate your "system" of basing your greens on Prussian blue; that, too, simplifies things (which I need!).

[@WendyPowellJones]

Chris Cornell yes it is good to do colour swatches and label. I am always up for simplifying things 😀 when you have investigated the possibilities of Prussian blue move on to the others....that will keep you busy😀.

[@snuuby5468]

Thank you for that helpful tip on using the same brand of color that you are using. I have discovered that every manufacturer's colors are different even though the name and pigments are the same.

[@liviariviello9474]

Un video molto istruttivo e interessante! Non avevo mai considerato il blu di Prussia per i miei verdi, grazie mille!

[@bcarl37d]

I like mixing these various colors to get different greens over many straight greens....great hints.

[@TheNeedleneuk]

Thank you for your recipes for the different greens.

[@WendyPowellJones]

Very glad that you found it useful . Mixing nice greens is something I know a lot of folks struggle with.

[@rj8944]

Very nice instruction. Useful. Thank you.

[@mkboyd6880]

[@jacolineloewen6530]

Very useful. Thank you.

[@marioalejandro7549]

Great video!!🙏🏼

[@noelnicholls3622]

A very helpful demo. I am surrounded by various greens where I live and struggle with getting the “right” green, so thank you for your excellent video.

[@WendyPowellJones]

Good to hear thanh you 🙂

[@Captain_MonsterFart]

That's a pretty painting.

[@MoMaryR]

My starting set of 12 Sennelier tubes included 2 greens (Phtalo and Forest Gr). I palleted large amounts of both and now wish I hadn't but hate to waste them by trying to dig them out of there! Your tips for mixing them are much more helpful.

[@narayanneralla5046]

Very informative !

[@Wildflowerafternoons]

Very helpful! Thank you. I’m so glad I found your channel!

[@WendyPowellJones]

ThAt is really good to hear....will spur me on 😀

[@deirdrehalstead6963]

Thank you Wendy, I enjoy attempting to paint flowers so these green mixing tips are invaluable....will definitely stop over mixing my combination of colours. Love how you explain things so well. I really enjoyed painting along with you yesterday doing sample backgrounds and adding salt and cling film. Thank you and keep well. 💕👏💕

[@WendyPowellJones]

Thankyou....what a lovely comment . It will inspire and motivate me to paint more and more 😀

[@WendyPowellJones]

Thankyou....I did reply earlier but it seems to have vanished.....or you may get two! A lovely comment. It will motivate me to continue and build up my channel. It is a good project for me this difficult year.

[@Skinnychelle48]

Wow, thank u! This is awesome info for me as a newbie watercolorist!

[@WendyPowellJones]

Pleased to hear it....there is lots to learn. I am still learning 😀

[@rozbridges9553]

Today is the first time I have come across your videos. I first watched the holly video (with cling film) which I absolutely loved and then followed your links to watch the masking fluid video and then this one - mixing greens. I have watched so many videos on mixing greens and still never know what to mix when the time comes! I understand that we need to experiment but I have now discovered that just sticking to one blue ie Prussian Blue and a few other colours I can find all the greens I need. I now have my ‘go to’ starting point! Thank you so much for taking out Athena confusion of mixing greens! You are an amazing teacher and I can’t wait to watch more. Thank you!

[@WendyPowellJones]

Lovely….glad it was a help. Recently I have found that if you mix the Prussian blue with cadmium orange that will give you another deep green 😀👍

[@williecheng7430]

Thank you, really helpful

[@WendyPowellJones]

Good to hear 😀

[@JimmyMarch]

What is the warmer yellow called please

[@WendyPowellJones]

Cadmium or new gamboge are Roth’s warm yellows I regularly use 🙂

[@rozbridges9553]

*the confusion

[@madhujanardhanan1034]

Please include english sub title. Thanking you.

[@WendyPowellJones]

I think you can do that your end....I do not want subtitles on my videos. There must be a work around 😀

[@TheChucky150]

Ultramarine is green biased, not red! French ultramarine is red biased!

[@WendyPowellJones]

It’s my understanding that ultramarine and French ultramarine both lean to red. You can buy ultramarine green.

[@TheChucky150]

@@WendyPowellJones think you need to do a bit more homework sorry
