Claire Carnell, however, made it easier to produce greens by demonstrating, in her Green Workshop, how to mix many of the shades and tints of greens used in landscape painting. Creating the dreaded color charts, Claire showed us how to mix marvelous greens using ultramarine and thalo blue, cad yellow medium, cad lemon yellow, cad red light, alizarin crimsen and white.
After mixing the greens, we painted from 2 photos that Claire knew contained the greens we had been creating. We painted those scenes and compared and critiqued each other's works. It was 2 days of learning, painting, accomplishing, and fun.

Love your title for this post, Cecelia (Kermit would love it too). It was great having you in the workshop!
Very nice! Looks like it was a productive and informative class.
I especially love the depth in your lower painting.
Beautiful range of chroma and value, great depth
Green is tough to do. So many directions, warm, cool...and no crayola in site... Looks like the workshop was fun. These a great!
