\"pastel<\/p>\n

Green lies between yellow and blue on the color wheel. To get a vibrant green, you’ll need to mix one part of yellow with one part of blue. Pro tip: You’ll need to mix blue and yellow paints with a greenish tint to them, i.e. Phthalo blue or Manganese blue and Cadmium Yellow light. Mix them until you get a uniform color. To lighten your vivid green, keep adding a paintbrush of white until you get the perfect pastel green color.<\/p>\n
