I hope to find here deep turqoise or very saturated green/blue colour. I realised it is very difficult to find colour I have in my mind
here is my attempt to look for turquoise in COPASO:

I mean something between Euphrat and Tigris little bit more green and bright. Maybe it is easier to create with textile and difficult tomix in RGB. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Chacoan_turquoise_with_argillite.jpg

Can you find the color in this patch?

The colors are "clean", so you can just copy the picture to any picture processing program and lift the colors from the patch. If you don't have a pic program, I'll do it for you :-)
The first color (up left) is Euphrates :-) So I'd say row 4, 5 or 6 might be close to what you are looking for...
(That belongs to the same green as "Persian Green" and "Deep Waters")

I think this is the most useful thread I've seen here yet. :) But I'm new-ish. I don't even know how to create the pallets yet.

Mind weighing in on a scheme for a room I'm soon to move into? I originally thought the blue was too dark, but now I'm looking to leave it because it's so pretty, and just do some MASSIVELY oversized semi-abstract stencil paint work on top of it. Large blocks of color, leaving only about half or a third of the walls that blue color.

The sheet of paper on the floor is what I used for white balance.

I want to bring the light up a bit with a softer green, and I reallyreally love these:

http://www.colourlovers.com/color/8FBFBB/Sunlight_on_water
http://www.colourlovers.com/color/66B299/winter_mint

I'd like to work in http://www.colourlovers.com/color/517D7B/Darkness_behind too, but that's probably bringing it back to the darker tones. :/

I'd also like to get some note of natural tree greens in here, but I'm struggling to find something that's saturated enough but not overwhelming.

If you have time, and want to poke at these, I'd appreciate the help, and would post pictures after painting!

The picture was taken at night, with tungsten room light, but whitebalanced on the sheet of paper. I have more pictures, but that's fairly accurate.

And if that doesn't work, I'm also considering dusty pinks.

Ceren, I think the blue color on your walls is amazing :-) It will be even more amazing if you add some bluegreen pattern on it... I hope you'll be posting images even when I can't help. Colors work so differently on tiny palettes and on the walls, and I am just an ordinary color-lover :-)
You could try buying some sample paints and just stencil it on. You can always paint over it if it's not working.
