Stoneground - Florentine Green (Earth Colour - Half Pan)

Florentine Green is a deep, dull, forest green. One of the most durable and permanent pigments available, Florentine can be used as a base in portrait work, in landscapes, botanical, and wildlife paintings.

Artist Notes: This drab, opaque green is very versatile and able to create a variety of greens that are effective in landscapes when combined with bright yellows like those in the Hansa family. Florentine Green can be used for neutralizing vivid, bright greens like Phthalo Green.
