Do you struggle to choose colours for your art? Maybe you've found it challenging to select colours that not only please the eye but also resonate with your style. As a devoted colour lover, I am excited to share this video with all my best tips for collecting beautiful and interesting colour ideas for your art.
Underpinning these tips is the idea of incorporating colour collection into your daily routine. Whether you're capturing photographs, creating swatches, or making colour recipe cards, there are numerous ways to enhance your colour skills and better understand your aesthetic preferences.
Some of the techniques I'll share are hands-on, involving fun activities like experimenting with quick backgrounds and creating fun collages. Others are digital, such as taking photos or curating mood boards on platforms like Pinterest.
You don't have to adopt all these methods, but having a few in your creative toolkit will help you quickly discover colour inspiration and integrate it into your art practice.
