Hi Ken, thank you for you detailed demonstration it is very informative and educational. I would like to paint along with this demonstration however I am wondering if I could swap out the green for sap green? Unfortunately I do not have the green you have suggested and am a few hours away from a local supplies store. Thank you

Couple of questions if you don’t mind one what solvent do you use? I have been using liquid but am thinking this maybe. A mistake button

Paul ward

sorry a mistake? Second you mention the layers will you be doing a patron post explaining the stages? Is this similar to the classical atelier stages that Cesar Santos teaches? Thanks and sorry for the multiple comments fat fingers!
