Valspar

Artisan Green

5009-7

Artisan Green is a dark teal-green with a strong blue undertone. It is not leafy. Save it for a bath vanity, island, or front door when the room needs saturation and depth.

LRV 11 means it absorbs light quickly, so full walls need a plan. A glossy or satin sheen can keep it from looking dull. Pair with pale counters, warm brass, or natural oak for relief.

Artisan Green in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
