Tri-Art Oil Colours - Sap Green

Transparent

A staple of academic paint palettes, this pigment was originally extracted from Buckthorn Berries. The initially purple juice went vivid green when mixed with alkaline solutions. This expertly formulated hue replaces the poorly like fast authentic Sap Green. Comprised of phthalo green (blue shade) softened with transparent red oxide, our Sap Green Hue is a deep, complex earth green, with warm yellow leaning undertones. Sap Green is excellent for mixing and glazing, and a particular favourite of landscape painters.
