Alternate sap green mixture

The following sap green substitute mixture is on John de la Vega's palette.

2 parts burnt umber
1 part thalo green

It behaves itself in flesh shadow mixtures with permanent alizarin, but it dries faster than I like because of the earth color. I'll experiment with Schmid's mixture.
