The pigment in the Green Gold is PY129, Copper Azomethine Green. Bruce MacEvoy has named this a &#8216;Top 40 Pigment&#8217; on his always informative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.handprint.com\/HP\/WCL\/tech34.html\">Handprint<\/a> website. He describes it as: &#8220;PY129 is commonly the ingredient in &#8216;green gold&#8217; paints, is a lightfast, semitransparent, staining, mid valued, moderately dull yellow pigment.&#8221; Michael Harding describes it as a great mixing colour, and that it makes some very interesting mixtures with Crimson.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1303235\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel.jpg\" alt=\"Michael Harding Green Gold\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1097\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel-300x274.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel-768x702.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel-1024x936.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel-620x567.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Gold-Green-Colour-Wheel-940x859.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I love the range of values and mixing properties of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/search\/?q=golden+green+gold+acrylic\">Golden Acrylic Green Gold<\/a>, but it doesn&#8217;t use the same pigment and I&#8217;ve never used this pigment in oil colour. So I wanted to get a feel for what the new Michael Harding Green Gold oil paint can do. I mixed a spectrum of colours with the Green Gold to see how it was modified by different colours. Then I mixed the Green Gold with Magenta in a few proportions because that is a particularly lovely combination. It takes very little Magenta or Crimson to modify the Green Gold (or any green or yellow) as these reds are strong colours.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1303234\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1303234\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1303234\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"619\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes-768x396.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes-1024x528.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes-620x320.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/MH-Green-Gold-and-Magenta-mixes-940x485.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1303234\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The green gold is a yellow so the mixes with magenta tend towards oranges.

However, it did grow on me when I mixed it with white and discovered the resulting bright sulphurous creamy yellow. It suddenly went from caterpillar green, to a metamorphic butterfly yellow!
