Fenway Parks Green Monster Color

[Breetheartist]

Hello, I am currently working on a painting of the Red Sox players whose numbers are retired. And for the background I was planning on having the green monster, which is a wall in the field of the major league baseball team the Boston Red Sox, but, I am having trouble figuring out the colors to mix to achieve the color. A picture of the green monster is down below so any suggestions for what colors to mix would be appreciated. I am going to be using acrylic paint for the wall I think, but if oil works better then I shall go with that instead. Thank you

My Chromium Oxide + Prussian blue mixture looks very close in color. I have oil colours, but you may try Chromium oxide green + Prussian blue Hue or Ultramarine in acrylic. I haven`t acrylics to try an experiment

Based photo not real thing (i dont know how it looks) Cobalt Green looks also very close. and there is no difference beetween oil and acryl which tells which is better...

Please tell us which paint colors/pigments you have available. And yes - if you already started with acrylic, no reason (color-wise) to switch to oil.

The colors I have are ultramarine blue cp cadmium yellow phthalo green (blue shade) phthalo blu (green shade) and hansa yellow medium. Thanks eveyone!

The wall color looks a bit different in different photos. But in each case, it's more or less middle green in hue and moderately saturated (but in some pics it looks distinctively more whitish).

Phthalo green itself will be too saturated so I'd first try yellow + blue combinations. You might prefer to use Cadmium Yellow because most Hansas are not very opaque. Then once you've gotten the green hue approximately right, you might (or might not!) need to add a tiny bit of white to make it a bit paler.
