Matching Greens
Click Graphic to Enlarge
As mentioned with other colors, the key to matching green with other colors is selecting the proper
shade of green. If you use a shade of green found in nature nearly any color will work with it. The analogous colors of blue and yellow
look good paired with green, especially when the colors are paired according to levels of lightness and dark.
The compliment to green is red, and this color also works well, provided the colors remain within the
natural spectrum. However, when you attempt to match overly bright or intense shades of these two colors, an unpleasant clash will occur.
The same caution should be used when attempting to match green with violets and oranges.
