Gloomy weather outside, at least it looked warm and cozy inside of the Molisana Bakery shop on Somereled in NDG. I went in there once but it was more like a social club where the customers and owners chat incessantly and try every type of deli meat before buying anything, so I didn't last long. The roof of the building has the most interesting shade of olive green, I mixed it with the useful perylene black (PBk31) and orange-yellow (PY110). Despite its name, perylene black is a dark green, in fact, Holbein sells it as shadow green. Its an indispensable paint for landscape and city painting. The sign on the other hand is mostly phthalo blue-green (PG7), and I tried to get the sign right after practicing fonts the other day.
