There's NO MAGIC FORMULA for mixing a good watercolour green. Let me share how I test and adjust until it works.

In this video I show how I begin with a couple of base colours and how I then adjust and change things to match my reference photo. There's a lot of trial and error involved and a lot of testing out - even as a professional artist, you can't avoid that! Green is a colour with so many shades, hues and variations, just a slight increase in one colour can change the whole look. I hope watching how I go back and forth until I am successful, will help you feel more confident in your own colour mixing ability. Sometimes people think there is a magic formula - but the formula is test, adjust, test, adjust and then test and adjust some more!
