Perylene green

Perylene green is a unique and versatile pigment that brings rich depth and subtle intensity to watercolor works. Originating from the organic pigment family, this dark, earthy green has an almost black hue with greenish undertones, making it an ideal color for wooded landscapes, deep shadows, and atmospheric scenes. Thanks to its composition, it offers excellent stability and remarkable permanence.

Perylene green is especially appreciated for foggy landscapes, where its rich, dark hue can recreate mysterious or dramatic atmospheres. Its ability to darken overly vibrant greens makes it perfect for creating subtle shadows and smooth transitions. It also integrates very well into compositions requiring earthy and natural tones, particularly for dark foliage, distant mountains, or seascapes.
