Back to sheds today, and a very 'green' painting. Green is a very difficult colour to handle successfully, I tend to mix my greens with yellows and blues of various sorts or reds for the very dark areas and prefer to load the brush with both colours and let it mix on the painting surface, sometimes a little encouragement with the brush afterwards or even fingers if I'm feeling bold! I think it works though.
