Mixing accurate and harmonious greens can be a real challenge! Lots of professional artists won’t even put an “out of the tube” green on their palette, preferring to mix their own to get it just right.
Greens found in high, dry mountain forests are very different from those of palm trees and in deciduous forests — each requires very different mixes.
Don’t forget, different seasons and climate zones affect the cool/warm relationships of the greens on your palette. If you’re not aware of them, the entire painting may look off!
To make things even worse … Recent scientific research reveals that men and women perceive greens differently!
It’s true!
The wrong green can actually push people away from viewing a painting!

There Was a Time Way Back When…
Early in his career, even Albert had a little trouble with this tricky color…
After avoiding painting summer greens, which he found rather difficult, Albert experienced an awakening while hiking in Woodstock, New York.
On one hike, as the sun departed and the quietness of late evening set in, Albert found himself surrounded by dense, lush trees — all showing off the intimidating green colors he’d worked so hard not to paint.
This time, Albert began to see something different … he noticed purples dancing with the greens … swirling and twirling in graceful harmony. Suddenly, it all made perfect sense.
Albert began to embrace greens. He experimented and took daring chances, leading to a long-lasting love of greens that has become like an autograph in his paintings.
If you’ve ever struggled to get greens right, let Albert lead you on an incredible journey of discovery to help you develop new and better techniques that will amplify the quality of your artwork.
Through his decades of painting professionally, Albert has developed a unique approach that anyone can follow, regardless of current skill level. He’ll reveal everything he knows about painting greens in oil.
