610-613: The idea was to make the color of back lighted grass, that is a strong yellow with a green edge which became #612. I kept adding more blue to make the darker tones which are unique greens in themselves. The word that comes to mind to describe them is "deferential". |

60-64: Very earthy yellow greens. I discovered their nessessity after moving to Florida from upstate New York. The greens are much warmer here. |

50-54: A bright grass green. Very much on the yellow side which isn't quite captured in the photograph at left. |

350-355: A chromium oxide green. #350 has some raw umber making an earthy shade. The tones are earthy without being grey. |

70-75: A chromium oxide mixed with a phthalo blue making a much bluer and cooler green than the above #350's. |

210-214: Another green grey but this is much yellower/warmer than the above #170's. They work well together giving you a choice of warm or cool neutral greens. |

420-423: A mixture of chromium oxide green and mars red making a complementary grey. The lighter tones are great neutrals for figure/portrait work. |

360-362: A bright arylide yellow and a phthalo green make this almost electric yellow green the brightest green in the collection. Along with titanium white to make the tones I add some of #10 giving them a unique richness. |

120-122: I've used the mixture for the yellow #90 to make these soft yellow greens by adding some phthalo blue. As opposed to making tints by adding white I simply used less blue so that they become yellower. |

200-203: Starting with a slightly stronger green than the #120 above I made the tints with a titanium white and yellow mix so that they become paler and yellower at the same time. I found this in natural greens in sunlight. |

280-284: This is a mixture of a natural brown oxide with a phthalo blue which makes strong earth greens at the beginning and then nice olivey yellow greens in the lighter tones. |

630-634: A big, bright, bold phthalo turquoise. I can't seem to get a picture to do it justice. |
