A big thank you from Pakistan... ohhh I am so happy that I won't have any issues with getting the "greens" right next time. Wasted so much paint and so many canvas boards just because of this mr green, and now mr green is miss yellow every where I see outdoors lol. Beautifully explained the solution, happy painting.
I just made a artwork with light green used a bit goldish colour yellow and a tiny bit bleu so yeah your absolutly right. You need to use more yellow. and a litle bit blue. Thank you for confirming it.
What a brilliant artist you are dear 👏👏👏. I'm elderly and took up art classes a year ago, gosh I wish I'd done it year's ago 🤭, you're an amazing instructor and appreciate you putting video's for those of us to learn and also admire. 🇦🇺
Thank you so much for this Malcom, it’s been a real game changer. I’ve struggled getting the right colour for sun lit greens for so long but now I’m really nailing it it’s so exciting. I’ve actually managed to get that sunshine in my grass….. thank you 🙏
Great video! I'm from New England but when I visited Ireland I felt like I was really seeing the color green for the first time. I had thought that green Ireland thing was just a lot of hype. LOL
Excellent and very helpful video. I do indeed have issues with getting the correct greens in my paintings. Been messing too much with greens "off the shelf"
Dewey it's been a while since i last painted. after watching a few of your videos to refresh my memory about color theory I am ready to get going.thank you so much for the encouragement
Very helpful, as always. When I use the color picker in photoshop on sunny clear sky scenes I get colors that are Cinnabar right out of the tube. I want to use a limited pallette, but the dark, medium and light Cinnabar are dead on.
If you are looking for really bright greens use a yellow and a blue that already lean towards green. Lemon Yellow was a good one, and Pthalo blue is a green blue.
Hey Malcom, do you have a video on foliage that’s close up in the foreground? I’m doing a painting where the grass , flowers and other foliage is right up front but it looks like a jumbled mess.
This one may be helpful: ua-cam.com/video/yzSTG_MqrWk/v-deo.html - Its all about simplification, big shapes and also make sure your composition is correct. There must be an easy path for the eye to enter the painting and not get held up by objects right in the foreground.
Hello, thank you for the demonstration. I have Ultramarine and Cad. Yellow Light ("lemon yellow"). Would a bit of Ultramarine and a lot of Cad. Yellow work for mixing bright green also? I'm asking because the Cerulean Blue you're using is a lot brighter than Ultramarine. And: Would Payne's Grey work too?
Cerulean would be better. Ultramarine has a hint of purple to it (which suggests red) and that will knock back the green slightly. I know opinions differ, but the point is if you want the zing to your green you will need cerulean or even cobalt. Yellow light is slighlty warmer than lemon yellow, but will still get you a bright green.
@@MalcolmDeweyHello again, I just got me a tube of Cerulean blue but I noticed it's an imitation made of phtalo blue, a type of white and a type of yellow pigments. Will this imitation ("hue") work also? I'm worried because it has a white pigment admixture.
Malcom, you’re a great teacher. Clear, no background music and at a nice speed. Great channel!

Green gold pigment is a good shortcut
You get to the essentials and it makes simple, perfect sense. Thank you so much !

I'm completely captivated with your painting tips. You make it look so easy! You have great talent and surely years of hard work and practice
Much appreciated, thank you
Hi malcolm. Love your videos. I get a very nice and bright springy green by mixing Turquoise blue with cadmium yellow.
Thanks for the tip Anne
thank you I have been over working my paintings trying to get the greens to look bright, now i kmow mostly yellow then the blue
Glad this has helped you Kathy
Your paintings are so much alive!
Love your teaching. Could you, please, specify what kind of lemon yellow is better to use? Thank you!
A cadmium yellow is best. Many brands but I suggest Maimeri or Rembrandt.
Dewey it's been a while since i last painted. after watching a few of your videos to refresh my memory about color theory I am ready to get going.thank you so much for the encouragement

I had to laugh when you said “ it pains you to add white!”
Uitstekend maar steeds moeilik om self n toneel te verf dankie vir die les.
Dankie Frik
How can I make a green landscape look interesting? I can't stand too much green in a landscape.
Warm it up more with yellows, yellow ochre and burnt sienna calms down green. Any reddish color will balance out the greens.
This is I need no. Thanks.
Thank you very much
Very helpful, thank you
