Tri-Art High Viscosity - Sap Green Light

Unlike our regular Sap Green, Sap Green Light is comprised of phthalo green (blue shade) softened with synthetic yellow earth oxide, giving it a lighter, warmer hue. Sap Green Light is a complex earth green, with strong yellow undertones. It is excellent for mixing and glazing, and a particular favourite of landscape painters.
