Celebrate the timeless charm of Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Paint - Sap Green (Colour No. 530, Series 2), a highly transparent, lightfast green inspired by the historic pigment once derived from berry juice. This modern interpretation blends Metal Complex Yellow (PY153) with Phthalocyanine Green (PG7), offering a vivid yet natural tone that mirrors the lush freshness of leaves, stems, and forest landscapes without the fading issues of the original 18th- and 19th-century formula.
Sap Green excels in botanical, landscape, and nature-inspired artwork, delivering clarity and depth with every transparent wash. Its luminous quality allows for effortless layering, creating organic tonal variations and soft gradients ideal for watercolourists seeking both authenticity and control.
Each Schmincke Horadam Aquarell paint is meticulously crafted with Kordofan Gum Arabic from the southern Sahara, carefully tested and selected to ensure exceptional flow, superb resolubility, and enduring colour brilliance. Once dried on your palette, the paint can be easily reactivated with water, maintaining its rich, even consistency and fine pigment dispersion.
With over 150 professional colours available in 5ml, 15ml, Half Pan, and Full Pan formats (sold separately), and 95 single-pigment options for pure, clean mixing, Schmincke Horadam Aquarell continues to set the benchmark for premium artist-grade watercolours.
Sap Green (Series 2) is a transparent, lightfast, organic green that captures the vitality of nature perfect for layering foliage, glazing botanical illustrations, and enriching landscapes with natural, luminous depth.
