Joyce this looks fantastic. I love this progress and thank you for sharing which colours and why you use them.
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce, this is looking really good. Question...do you most always use WN green (BS) in your greens? Don't think I ever remember using the RS. And yes, thanks for posting the colors.
ReplyDeleteHi Mollie
ReplyDeleteI do always use Winsor Green (BS) it is a green that blends so well with the rest of my palette.
