  4. Don: I think you and I use many of the same pigments, especially when it comes to the greens of trees (can you say New Gamboge and Ultramarine blue)? Thanks for the nice comment!

    Kate: I'm the same way with your wonderful work--I instantly recognize it when I see it! Thanks so much for the nice comment, and I WILL get up your way soon!

    Marcia: I don't use tube greens, that is I mix all my greens to give me a wider spectrum of hues, which really helps with landscapes. Thanks for leaving a comment!
