Velvety new leaves

Shimmer in late day sunshine

Emerge fresh and green.

Art Prescription:  Spring has sprung and new growth is exploding everywhere. Greens are abundant, nature’s favorite color. Matching greens with paint is a lesson in color theory…is it a yellow-green, a blue-green, a cool green, a warm green? One of my favorite exercises is to mix greens. Start with a cool blue and cool yellow, then warm blue and warm yellow. See how many shades of green you can mix!!
