About this colour
Green Gray is a refined, muted grey with a cool greenish cast - a distinctive neutral that sits between the earthy character of Davy's Grey and the cool precision of a blue-grey. It is particularly valued for its understated versatility in both landscape and portrait work.
The cool green undertone makes it exceptional for painting natural shadows, overcast skies, weathered stone, and the subtle tonal shifts of foliage in low light. It softens and unifies brighter colours when used as a mixing partner, adding depth without introducing unwanted warmth.
An invaluable colour for artists who value nuanced, naturalistic palettes. The opaque body ensures clean coverage and smooth, even washes, while its ease of lifting makes it forgiving and ideal for both confident and exploratory painting styles.
Product features
Highly pigmented & vibrant
Each 15 ml tube delivers exceptional colour intensity - vivid at full strength and at the same time luminous and clear when diluted.
Endless colour possibilities

Opaque character
One of the rare opaque green-greys in watercolour - paint soft, atmospheric tones directly over dark washes without losing luminosity.
Non-toxic formula
Made with non-toxic additives and safe for all ages and working environments.
Artist grade quality
Professional-grade transparency and vibrancy, perfect for professional artists and beginners exploring the medium.
Creamy, soft consistency
Higher glycerine binder than pans and therefore have buttery soft texture that disperses effortlessly in water.
Supreme lightfastness
Highly lightfast pigments rated Excellent which means your artwork stays brilliant for decades.
Perfect for large areas
A tiny squeeze goes a long way. Ideal for smooth, even washes across large sections of a painting.
Why choose tubes?
Watercolour tubes contain more glycerine binder than pans, giving the paint a soft, creamy texture that mixes instantly with water. A small amount from the tube goes a very long way - making tubes ideal for large washes and expressive, generous brushwork.
Leave it to dry - reactivate anytime
Squeeze out what you need and leave the rest on your palette. When the paint dries, simply mist with a little water and it reactivates fully - as workable as when it was first squeezed. No cleaning needed between sessions, and nothing is ever wasted.
Refill your pans
Use tubes to top up empty half- or full-pans in your travel or studio palette. Squeeze into the pan, let the paint cure for a few days, and you have freshly loaded pans ready for use - far more economical than buying replacement pans.
Soft Muted Pastels with White
Mix Green Grey with White to unlock a range of delicate, cool pastel tints - from soft sage to pale celadon. It yields muted, understated tones that are perfect for misty landscapes, subtle foliage, botanical studies, and soft atmospheric backgrounds.
