NICE, Liron! Can you do a whole series like this with all your colors? :) So fun to watch!

Thank you for letting me know (: I think it's a great idea, and I'll probably do reds next 🙏😁❤️

You should check out Bamboo Green by Holbein (PG36) For some reason I think you would like this color

Great idea to paint images instead of swatches. This method really shows off the colors much better than regular swatches.

Thank you (: Swatches are a thing of the past 😂

Thanks Liron. Green has always been a bugbear of mine, particularly Viridian Green, but your comparison method is great. Love it. The Perylene Green would make useful shadings in Botanical or similar type studies.

+Wayne L Thank you 😊 The Perylene is fascinating to me, I have many uses for it too!

Hmmm! your voice sounds good ... That aside I like the way you presented the greens in different setting. I've had a love hate relationship with greens... I am now using a lot more Daniel Smith and love Perylene green and that Apatite is one I will get. I don't like any kind of thalo although many artists' do use it a lot.. One thing I've never liked are the bright greens that some artists will paint on the trees. It always looks so artificial..So I prefer the darker greens or adding a bit of yellow to them ... Anyway just my 2 cents. oh yes , Jeanne Dobie ... her book on Making Color Sing ... I've never seen so many ways to mix green. !!!

+Barbra Joan I can totally relate. I used to have a very similar opinion - but am now softening up to these types of greens as well (: I will check out her book. Thank you!

I love the warm green too. Great episode, Liron.

Good choice - it's such a beautiful color (: Can be used in many situations and styles.

Hi Liron, this was interesting. I kind of like all of the greens. I do have DS Sap Green and Green Apatite Genuine. Since I tend to just mix greens, I'd have to look to see if I have any other greens. I do have a Duochrome tube from DS. When it is dropped into a wet area on paper it will sometimes split into a bronze and a kind of green color. It's good for painting cacti and other desert scenes. I don't use it much; but, it's good for some things.

Hi Liron, the Duochrome paint from Daniel Smith is called Duochrome Desert Bronze. It's bronze; at the same time, it can manifest as green. Sometimes, it can show both bronze and green. It's really interesting.

Thanks so much for sharing all your greens :) I am intrigued by the may green and can see you've done a separate video on that, so off I go to that one :) I am looking at what greens to purchase. Aesthetically I LOVE the blue-greens, but practically I use the more yellow-greens. It's hard to choose what I need. I'm thinking I'll get a sap green and maybe another, I'm not sure. In my head I'm thinking maybe a forest green kind of colour. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

My pleasure (: Thank you Sap mixes really well with most primaries I use so it's a great one. Also Phthalo Green. Surprised the hell out of me. Works fantastic! With Yellow Ochre + French Ult. (yes yes!).

Try mixing the phthalo green with a crimson to neutralize it into some beautiful shades.

It breakes my heart that you think the olive green is boring.... green is my favorite color, I've loved this video! I was wondering if you tried mix the may green with an yellowish (is this a word? Help) red? I try to do this to get an darker green, usually it works well. Loved your swatches!

Very interesting - I'll give it a go, as I really loved the May Green. I did mix it with some yellows, which was really fun. And "yellowish" is a word by my standards 😂.

The Olive Green by Schmincke I find really beautiful, but its not very lightfast. The permanent version is rather boring. I was so disappointed to find out the Olive green was not lightfast. I bought it when I was really new to watercolor. I hope you can do another series like these when you have better lighting and stuff. Really enjoy your videos, I am learning a ton and its so cool to hear about pigments, there are not so many many channels that talk about the nerdy stuff. Love it, thanks so much !

Thank you 😊🙏🏼 I will do more of these! And it’s really a shame about the Olive Green. It’s a beautiful paint!

Yes, as a green lover, I enjoy seeing what other painters have. I've got 20+ (yes, ridiculous I know), but I don't have that D.S. Green Apatite and wish I hadn't seen it...now I've gotta have it. Yes, I have an art supply collecting problem :D)

do you still use sap green, since you have other colours to mix it up easily? I am asking, because so many use it and name it in tutorials. but I never want to buy too many different colours at once. don't want huge palletts. and since I know, how easy it can be mixed, I would never buy it. also may green. easy to mix. I still have one, because I baught it too early. before I knew some mixes. it can be useful thoug, in abstrakt paintings, when a bigger amount and thick paste is needed. but apart from that, acutally easy to mix. I wonder, what esle one can do with it in the pure form. is it ma special colour for other mixes?

Awesomely done!! Kathy

If you have a palette with angled wells you can actually separate out the Green Apatite from the very bright green color and the darker, granulating sediment. Sent you a pic demonstrating this on your instagram.

Thank you (: Replied there. I love this color.

audio great.. I was just going to say that the perylene green looks good for monochrome painting but you said you like to use the undersea green for that.. maybe try it?

@LironYan

Yes - both of these have a great value range and would be good for mono. I believe the Perylene Green can go even darker, so I would use that 😁

pg7 greens tend to be the same, i swatched at least 8 brands' paints and only noticed difference in how dark their value can get. I enjoyed this a lot, I think I will do something similar with my paints too :D

The shirt is intentional 😛 And come to think of it, I believe that's indeed the one that's discontinued. I think it wasn't completely discontinued though, but rather replaced with a different formula.

Hi Liron, what Mic did you end up getting? - sounds good! Suprised by DS Sap Green, it's way darker than WN which on screen is more like Schm May Green.'

Nice video thanks! Lately I've been using viridian (PG18) alot. It's so stubborn, behaves really bad, dries like a rock, but still I can't help but liking it! Very weird! :D

Another very interesting video. :) I agree that the Schmincke Olive Green is extremely boring. Furthermore, it looks nothing like the colour of olives either, I don't think. I am not sure I would eat an olive that colour. :P Other olive greens like the olive green by Winsor and Newton are better, I think.

Haha, I actually went on a small trip with friends and we hiked through some olive trees. The color was indeed a little different (though these are raw olives, that are different from the ones in cans etc.).

I'd do a video like this, but no one wants to watch a four-hour video of SoulKeever's Color Kleptomania. And now I have a new name for a show. LOL. #HoardingTheRainbow

Hi Liron, pleased to see you see the importance of green. If you read chapter 4 of Jeanne Dobie's book 'Making Color Sing' you will be opened to a whole world of green with a limited palette using pure pigment watercolor. Look at her picture also on page 26, beautiful example of glazing techniques and greens as a dominant feature 🤗

Had to google that one. Looks like a very "neutral" green that's probably great for mixing with both cool and warm primaries (:
