Color Palette: Gorgeous Green

Green is the color of nature. It comes in so many different hues… from deep emerald jewel tones, to blue-green teals, to leafy tones, to olive drab, to sage, and on and on. It’s restful and retentive. Green is definitely one of my favorite colors.

Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises.
— Pedro Calderon de la Barca
