 Starting green swatches… though not sure what part of Prussian Green is, well, green. 🤷

Went ahead and swatched the turquoise because it was there, then ended this page with some nice greeny greens. 💚

Had extra paint come out of the tubes when I mixed them, so played on various papers … all are 300 g/sm2 cold press …. 

1. Artist Loft - Michael’s brand, Level 2 (3 is Pro), I just don’t like the look of it., will likely use the rest of this pad as a base layer for mixed media projects. 

2. Fabriano - 25% cotton, higher end than #1, it works 

3. Arches - 100% cotton, this is the Good/Expensive Stuff, I like it the best because of how the colors seem to stay a bit more vibrant and the look of the texture of the paper.
