The Three Greens Every Watercolourist Needs

Greens in Watercolour: The Three I Use (and Why I Want More) Get brushes and signed copies of my books here! https://dewintonpaperco.etsy.com Greens are easily my most-used colours — and also the ones I’m most tempted to keep adding to. In this video I’m talking about the three greens I currently have in my watercolour palette, how I use each one, and why I’d happily include more if I had the room. Make sure to watch to the end to see a sneak peek of my visit to the Daler Rowney Factory. Join Patreon   / membership   or Youtube Channel Membership to watch the full length vlog!    / @dewintonpaperco   I share what each green brings to my mixing, how they behave on the page, and when I use them straight from the pan versus modifying them with other colours. I also talk about why having a few well-chosen greens can make painting feel more fluid, especially if you paint a lot of foliage, botanicals, or nature-inspired subjects. If you’ve ever felt torn between mixing every green from scratch and wanting a few dependable favourites ready to go, I hope this video helps you find a balance that suits how you like to paint. We are back to diving into our palette colors and looking at the color. This video demonstrates watercolor painting techniques, focusing on color theory and application. Watch as we explore various shades and combinations of green hues, mixing colors to create new colors with paint. This easy tutorial is perfect for anyone looking to understand paint mixing better, helping you master beginner color theory. 🎨 If you give it a try, I’d love to see your finished creations — and let me know in the comments what colors you mixed! 💕
