Best help for me so far! I cannot thank you enough! I wish you would do more! What a magnificent artist you are, I can't take my eyes away from your landscape! Thank you Marc
Thank you for a very logical and helpful way of laying out the different greens that you use. I have been mixing greens using these base colours but as there are so many possibilities I get confused about which combination to turn to for a specific purpose. 😊
Thank you for this! mixing greens is a big struggle for me and understanding the theory behind color selection was incredibly valuable. Saved this to watch again!
Really educational! Thank you! I've never painted squares like that - I'll definitely have to try it. If nothing else, I think it would help my eye and help me learn to control the colors better.
Very generous of you to share the recipes, as if a Michelin chef shares his ingredients. Thank you. Viridian is my base pigment for greens (because it can be turned down easily with alizarin hue and plays nicely with ochre, oranges-yellows and transparent red oxide) but I will definitely try cerulean approach. I also would love to see your sky color mixes. Sometimes I have very hard time mixing the right hue or decreasing the chroma of the sky, and I guess cobalt blue might be part the solution but haven't tried yet.
Medium and solvent. My medium recipe is on my blog (there's also a video recipe here on my channel somewhere). For solvent I use spike oil these days, as my wife is allergic to turpentine.
Thank you so much for making this video! It really helped to see your gorgeous landscape painting in the background while comparing to each color blended on the squares. Learned a lot! Was soo confused about greens before. Thank you!!
Great demo and artwork shown here! I’ve recently been choosing which colors for a limited landscape palette but in acrylics. I like (Cad yellow light, Yellow ochre, Cerulean blue, Naphthol crimson, Raw umber, Chrome oxide green and Ivory black.) I find it can produce a large variety of greens that work together.
Thank you for sharing your paints and knowledge with us all! This really helps and I could only hope for similar lessons on other colors like browns, etc… Thanks again 🙏
I hope, Marc, that the universe rewards you for ALWAYS sharing your expertise so generously with the rest of us.
I, like so many people have admired the colors that this artist uses, and here he is sharing them with us, how generous

I can be fun to make a swatch sheet with squares, using your picks to then refer to later.
That helps me :)
Very useful to see your painting in the background and hear what colors you use frequently. Thank you.
Thank you Marc, I have been exploring & struggling with greens. The color mixing demo you generously shared has just made my day!

Gorgeous painting! Exactly the way I aspire to paint one day.....realistic but still obviously an artistic rendering in paint.
Really educational! Thank you! I've never painted squares like that - I'll definitely have to try it. If nothing else, I think it would help my eye and help me learn to control the colors better.
I love your ability to simplify the subject, even difficult ones. Do you ever use viridian green?
Excellent demo and explanation. Many thanks! 🙏

Thanks Marc for a great colour lesson....question what is in your dippers?

Looking forward to learning from you in person 2024. Somewhere in the Gers?

These are the colors I have been trying to capture.

Great video. Not as much red mixed in as I would expect. Look forward to trying these color mixes.
Thank you!!😊
Thank you very much for the your green presentation. I immediately will try to get the different greens. I like the base of ceruleum blue!
thanks, very informative. curious, what mediums do you use?
There is another video on my channel with the recipe. It's sun-thickened linseed oil and Canada balsam.
I’ve been struggling with these same colours! SO very helpful, thanking you !
Thank you !
Thanks, Marc. Always appreciate your instructional videos.
Thank you Marc!! Valuable info about greens and also the primaries in a way.
Love it. I just bang Phthalo Blue instead of Cerulean. I am not that flush Marc. Thanks for the demo.✌️
Great video. Background painting is insane !!
Amazing video! I learned a lot. Thank you
You are so generous to students like me!
Thank you so much Marc
You’ve really helped me
Very helpful well done with the palette cam and interesting to see your use of medium and paint consistency.

Thank you ! Hope this is a series … ciao, Flavia M.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS :)
Absolutely brilliant
51 shades of green!
Ever need to use viridian or sap green?
No, but many of my favorite painters used them.
Thank you for sharing your paints and knowledge with us all!
This really helps and I could only hope for similar lessons on other colors like browns, etc…
Thanks again 🙏
