COLOUR SERIES: KELLY GREEN

Starting today, the blog will get a brand new series: THE COLOUR SERIES!

The first colour I have the pleasure to introduce is:
KELLY GREEN


Kelly green is one of my favourite colours and every time I see it - my heart skips a beat.



The name "kelly green" for a color originated in Ireland - this is not hard to imagine, since both the color green and the surname "Kelly" are quite common there.
The first recorded use of of it as a color name was in 1917.

This shade of green is highly saturated, but leans a bit more towards yellow than an emerald green.
It somehow manages to be both cool and warm at the same time.
