    I love mixing greens, before starting painting it never occurred to me how many different shades of green there could be! : ) I agree with you about tube greens, most are pointless! Buuut.. there are a couple of single pigment greens I love, which are chromium oxide, and shadow green (only available in acrylic by Holbein I think, it's stunning!) Ohh there is one mixed tube green I like too, W&N olive green, but that's it I'm not allowed to buy any more tube greens 😂 I also will intermix them a bit with the other colours I'm using for harmony. I got some lovely surprise dark greens from mixing phthalo blue with burnt sienna, I recommend trying this if you haven't already.. confused me for a moment as I was expecting neutral greys then realised the orange was neutralising the blue part whilst allowing the 'green shade' of the phthalo to come out! Thank you for your inspiring videos, and for introducing me to the yellow and black greens, love these!

    fun! green rarely finds its way onto my palette unless there is blue in it. be refreshing to try the more natural earthy greens for contrast. Thanks!

    Thank you for this video. Mixing colors can be intimidating, because we have the desire, even need, to "get it right". Humans crave certainty; uncertainty makes us very uncomfortable. But life is filled with uncertainty; from ordering from a menu at a restaurant (nothing like the feeling when the dish you always order changes!) to choosing a romantic partner. Mixing colors should be approached with a feeling of playfulness, a " I wonder what will happen if I mix...?" I never, until now, knew about mixing black and yellow. So, once again, thank you for encouraging experimentation!

      So glad I could help. We should never be afraid to experiment :)

    Love how you teach, Louise. Thank you. I like to work in series. I’m currently diving into Sylvia Plath’s poetry. Planning to paint a series of abstracts in reaction to her works.

    On an amusing note, the title of this video made me instantly think of the band incubus. Iykyk.
