Today we painted at the Casa del Rey Garden in Balboa Park. There were roses, palm trees, terraces, walkways, a wishing pond, and these two young cypress trees that totally caught my eye. I liked how their shape and color contrasted with the walls and paths.

The cypress trees are a wonderful blue-green. Greens can be so tricky to get just right.

Thank you, Emma, I agree. I love green so much, it should be easier to get it right. Greens are so elusive. I am down to one green in my palette, a sap green by Holbein, and mostly use some combination of yellow and blue. So much more to learn.

and different brands produce different colours too, It’s all a bit trial and error!
