Description:

Sap Green is a rich, warm watercolour pigment that embodies the lush, vibrant greens found in nature. Characterized by its deep, earthy hue with yellow undertones, Sap Green is ideal for capturing the essence of foliage, forests, and grassy landscapes. This versatile colour evokes the feeling of fresh plant life, making it a favourite for artists seeking to convey the beauty and depth of natural scenes.

As a semi-transparent pigment, Sap Green offers smooth, even washes that flow beautifully on paper. In full strength, it provides a bold, saturated green, while when diluted, it transforms into softer, more delicate shades, perfect for highlighting or creating atmospheric effects. Its subtle granulation adds a natural texture, enhancing the realism of leaves, trees, and other organic elements.

With good lightfastness, Sap Green retains its vibrancy and richness over time, ensuring that artworks maintain their integrity. It mixes well with other pigments, producing a wide range of greens, from brighter, lively hues when blended with yellows to darker, muted tones when combined with earth colours or blues. This pigment is essential for artists focused on botanical, landscape, or natural-themed work, offering a warm and inviting green that adds depth and life to watercolour compositions.
