Thanks René.

Raw Sienna
Burnt Sienna
Permanent Rose
French Ultramarine Blue
Cerulean Blue
Sap Green
Viridian Green

Sometimes Lemon Yellow and Cadmium Red
Thanks Keith,

Much appreciated, it seems the greens are much "greener" over there.
I still am amazed that greens are so local, .. Irish greens are much deeper while English ones are more darker, ... these seems to be a bit flatter while Dutch greens are more muted and German greens more blueish, ... but maybe I'm just rambling around.

Anyway thnx for the enlightment.

I think some of it is down to personal preference, as well as the colours available on the palette. Some people like saturated colours, while others like muted ones.

I love the size of these small paintings.

Yes, it's sometimes difficult to paint in such a small area, but they make a nice change from the bigger paintings.
