🎨 PERMANENT GREEN OLIVE 🎨

Hi there, welcome to another episode of The Paint Show!

After doing a few episodes on paints I REALLY familiar with and love, I decided to do one on a paint I'm still not that accustomed to.

I got this by Schmincke Horadam. It's one of my least used paints right now. This is a 5ml tube.

🎨 PAINT INFO 🎨

From Schmincke brochure:
Lightfast alternative to Olive Green
Mixture of two lightfast pigments.

Pigments: PO62 (Benzimidazolon Orange) and PG7 (Phthalo Green).
Lightfastness: Good (4/5)
Series 2
Semi-Opaque
Semi-Staining
Non-Granulating

This is indeed an alternative to Schmincke's Olive Green, that has a 2/5 (!!) lightfastness.

If we compare the look of the paint, Olive Green easily takes the cake, but that lightfastness issue is serious.

With that being said, this one can be pushed more towards looking like that green, I suppose by mixing more orange into it.

🎨 PURCHASE LINKS (AFFILIATE) 🎨

You can get this one in a 5ml tube here: https://amzn.to/2J5Kdvu
And in a half pan here: https://amzn.to/2GCDpXu

🎨 CONCLUSION 🎨

I'll really have to try incorporating this one more in my paintings.
I do see how it can be useful as a convenience green that I can then mix with blue or yellow to turn into something a little different.

I initially didn't like Phthalo Green, but now I find it very useful in certain cases.

This one may be similar in that sense.

In any case, I hope you enjoyed this one, and I'll talk to you soon!
