This journey started when I was about 8/9 and my favourite youtuber at the time painted their room lime green. Thus, of course, my favourite colour had to be lime green.
This later evolved to mint green as I found the sharpness of lime to be quite jarring and outdated. Mint green was more "trendy".
Then one day I was scrolling through Pinterest and found these images of a bass guitar and some vinyl AM platform boots. They were the perfect shades of green, more muted and grey (which beleive make most colours look better).
I also discovered that the finish of the colour can be almost as important as the colour itself.
TLDR: grey-green with a preferably vinyl/glossy finish (like wet paint.)

A beautiful and useful oil paint color!
Sap Green is much like the green of sunlit leaves before an incoming storm.
It's a warm transparent green, which lends itself to layering (glazes and otherwise), giving pieces a really nice and unexpected ~moody~ depth.
(It's also WARM! Can't overstate this. No more endlessly toning down phthalo!)
Now admittedly!!!
The formulas vary from Gamblin to Windsor and Newton!
AND both formulas use more than one pigment π
Usually that would turn me off of a color but in this case it just doesn't, Sap Green really is just that good no matter how it's made. Having a green you don't have to mix perfectly, that wonderfully layers and transforms other colors is just too good!

an art that us americans do not appreciate enough. I don't quite mean the Japanese way, where we sit down and have a ceremony, but once I brought tea to a class. My friend said it smelled good and I said I KNOW!!! (it's my favorite tea ever) and so he tried some, and liked it. So obviously I brought him a bag of the tea next class. We are going to hang out and drink tea together soon.

i smoked last night and i woke up with the memory of my dream. I was cross country skiing. There was a tall icicle that I looked through to see the sunset. The sun refracted rainbow through the icicle, and the sunset was pink and purple and yellow. I loved the way that the sun shone through the trees all pink and white.
