Description
Stoneground Paint Co. Forest Floor Gouache
Stoneground Gouache is a water-based media that dries to an opaque, matte finish. This dark, cool brown has a notable green undertone making it useful in capturing shadows. Forest Floor is greener than Raw Umber Dark Neutral, and significantly more brown than Florentine Green.
Artist Notes: Forest Floor is wonderful for giving bodies of water a muddied appearance. For those who partake in urban sketching, Forest Floor is very useful in capturing the colour of weathered concrete when mixed with Titanium White.
Paint Makers Notes: Forest Floor is a combination of Raw Umber (PBr 7) and Florentine Green (PG 17).

About Stoneground’s LUCKY 13 Colors:
Introducing Stoneground’s New LUCKY 13 Gouache Collection! This is our favourite launch to date. Thirteen jewel-inspired hues that are versatile, vibrant, and absolutely perfect for capturing late summer and autumn landscapes.
This release includes four new single pigment hues: Mars Yellow, Mars Red Light, and Mars Red Oxblood, and Nickel Titanium Yellow. Nine additional hues were also developed to supplement the original gouache collection. Sunflower, Clementine, Strawberry Fields, Beetroot Purple, Hellebore Purple, Peacock Blue, Maritime Pine, Green Gold, and Forest Floor.
Combine the new yellows (Nickel Titanium Yellow, Sunflower and Mars Yellow) with the newest purples (Beetroot and Hellebore) to create beautiful browns for fall foliage and dried leaves. Use Clementine for vibrant hits of orange in autumn botanicals, or combine it with Nickel Titanium Yellow for the perfect sunset glow in landscape paintings.
