Ferrous & Bone Green

A lively, warm green inspired by freshly unfurled leaves. Semi-transparent with slight granulation, Ferrous & Bone Green is highly lightfast and ready to use.

A balanced palette of six handmade watercolours inspired by earth, mineral and landscape. The muted, harmonious colours deliver considered mixing, favouring restraint over intensity and rewarding layered, observational work.
