SA,

I don't paint landscapes.  I paint people, or animals, or things that 
are of people.  That's what seems to interest me.  I don't want to 
know the name of trees, but I do know that I have a few Hemlocks on 
this property.  I think they are diseased, though.  I was 
disappointed to learn they are not the type of hemlock that Socrates drank.

To paint flesh, I use a base of English Red and titanium white.  To 
that I would add one or two of the other colors on my palette 
depending on the color of the flesh and the color of the light and 
reflections.   Sorry, but I don't know about the young bright green 
needle growth.  But I will tell you, every Spring I want to grab the 
oil and vinegar, salt&pepper, to munch on the new baby leaves.  In 
the Spring I want to be a doe.
