How To  Make Green

You can make a basic green color by mixing yellow and blue.

There are many different yellow and blue shades available, and depending on which ones you use, you can create an enormous number of green shades.

Mixing with Warm and Cool Primary Colors

There are multiple ways of going about mixing green from blue and yellow paint.

You can create a bright and vivid green shade by blending a cool yellow with a cool blue.

If you want to mute the green a little, add a small amount of the complementary color, red.

If you want a darker, more earthy green, try mixing a little burnt sienna or another warmer red into your green.

You can use several colors to make a cooler shade of green, including some purples.
