Do you get tired of using the same colors? I used to feel stuck in the same colors.
I kept repeating myself because it worked.
Now I have learned an approach to making any color work.
In today’s video, I will demonstrate a way to discover new color.
In the video, I give a quick refresher about color harmony.
This is at the root of making any color work with any other color.
Next I share an exercise that almost forces you to create new colors.
As long as you like the first one, you will probably like the ones that follow!
Thirdly, don’t forget that a super fast way to get color working is to glaze.
Creating the harmony by mixing paint or glazing over paint has the same effect.
Try and do a little of both.
And try that exercise! It works!
In the comments below post your new favorite color combinations!
Enjoy this day.
