This is much better than the ones Pantone chooses.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

fr that beige-brown was awful, gonna start picking my own colour every year

thomascrow.bsky.social•162 days ago

Recently I discovered pthalo green as well, but also Payne’s gray which really changed my life with art.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

oh NICE, I just googled that - they would go so well together!

thomascrow.bsky.social•162 days ago

It’s so good! Lots of blue hues to explore with it too.

mirandaleiggi.bsky.social•162 days ago

I love this color so much

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

it's so rich and mysterious!

smarterthanawaffle.bsky.social•162 days ago

Mixed with magenta phthalo green makes a purple that is absolutely rich and delicious

joyousjenn.bsky.social•162 days ago

Oh this is a wonderful tip

ellie marney pthalo green hair 2025?

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

alas my white hair no longer takes dye 😭

garbagesauce.bsky.social•161 days ago

😢😢😢

elliemarney.bsky.social•161 days ago

it's okay, I had my time! it's kinda freeing in a way

sactowngrandma.bsky.social•162 days ago

That is a truly gorgeous green. Reminds me of the color of the redwoods as they loom over the lighter and brighter greens of the ferns below.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

it's such an evocative colour! certain colours just light up your brain and somehow this is one of them

sactowngrandma.bsky.social•162 days ago

Yes! I think we respond to the way it evokes the forest primeval.

drmaraeinstein.bsky.social•162 days ago

Thank you. It’s stunning.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

it is! mysterious and majestic 😊

ohmyyy.bsky.social•162 days ago

i have seen it in a few kitchen designs.
interiors are looking a little 1800s now

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

oh I will have to look into that!

ohmyyy.bsky.social•162 days ago

might be lucky looking for european kitchens

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

thanks for the tip!

deebeedee.bsky.social•162 days ago

I don't usually like greens but that colour is so rich and beautiful.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

I think it's like a deep music note or something, I really love it 😊

breemcd.bsky.social•162 days ago

I am currently painting some bookcases this color for my "library". I can't wait to see how this project turns out.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

please post pics! it's the PERFECT colour for a library 😊

notagetawaydriver.bsky.social•162 days ago

It looks… dignified yet playful.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

it looks like a mystery!

patriciablue.bsky.social•162 days ago

Your year is probably 1990, because it was all the rage then. See the inside of the Hone Alone house for an example. I still think it would be perfect for a library with recess lighting.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

it would be IDEAL for a library!

annettehas.bsky.social•162 days ago

jewel tones my beloved

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

gorgeous!

motherofmanycatz.bsky.social•162 days ago

Oh that’s pretty. I had been getting in to greens a lot 2024 for some reason. Looks like I’m extending that into 2025

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

we deserve all the greens!

joyousjenn.bsky.social•162 days ago

I'm so picky about my green pigments. Pthalo is my favorite from the tube.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

oh it must be amazing to paint with!

joyousjenn.bsky.social•162 days ago

I just assumed this was watercolor 😂 yes pthalo blue and pthalo green are wonderful paint pigments.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

aw that's a classic

librariantracey.bsky.social•162 days ago

Ooh, it's beautiful!

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

it makes me want to walk into a primeval forest 😊

librariantracey.bsky.social•162 days ago

We just had our house painted cedar red with this color as the trim

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

that sounds DIVINE 😊

mindthunderbolt.bsky.social•162 days ago

Now you should google pantone color of the year 2025😭... It's ... A color 😂

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

omg I SAW - it was certainly a choice 🙃

waschelle.bsky.social•162 days ago

That is a beautiful green.

elliemarney.bsky.social•162 days ago

like distant mountains at dusk 🖤
