  1. I always liked the pallet of copics you can use in the older Sketchbook, so I made a pallet to be used in other programs. I have .aco, .cls, .gpl, and .kpl pallet/swatch formats so that should cover most art programs.

  2. @Alice I used a black Pilot G2 to write my shopping list for milk, eggs, bread, soda, oranges, lettuce, and toilet paper

  3. It's been a while, so here's a post about how I keep track of all my inks while also letting you know about v2 of my swatch site.

  4. and the rover did also its calibration things with the color swatches and sundial, which are pretty dusty by the way. Here they are captured in Stereo3D.

  5. Been watching lots of ink swatching videos on YT. My ink library is already kind of ridiculous, so seeing more inks I want to try doesn’t help, but I can’t resist! 😆

  6. I created a blanket with all the textured knitted swatches I've knit this year. It's the size of a lap blanket is quite heavy. The yarn is an acrylic/cotton blend I found here in Chiang Mai.

    A #purple would make a completed secondary triad with the orange and brighter greens so it's a reasonable choice. Every time I try a dab of a purple, it goes quickly, but then I mix up a purple if I don't have one.

    This is a link to the original post about the cleaned up #palette:

    Anyway, the handy contenders are:

  8. Reset my #palette tonight after doing a couple paintings today. Made a couple changes and ended up with an empty slot. What shall I add? #watercolor #watercolorpainting #color #swatches

  9. While rummaging for gold ochre, I found another black - bloodstone genuine. I was feeling ready to set up an indoor palette but instead I cleaned up stuff and then since I'd found the two gold ochres I did swatching and tried them both with French ultramarine to see what I remembered about them making a double granulating non-green. #Watercolor #Watercolorpainting #WorldWatercolorMonth #swatches #granulation

  10. Experimenting with mixing. This is Daniel Smith Sleeping Beauty #Turquoise with some different yellows, transparent red oxide and perm. alizarin crimson. At the bottom with transparent orange. And with a black. Nicely granulating. #WaterColor #watercolorpainting #swatches #paint #colors

  11. Back to #blacks and #grays. I'm almost embarrassed that I was able to add eight more but anyone who knew me in my quilt days will testify I was all about the black fabrics. All Daniel Smith except one Schmincke #Watercolor #Watercolorpainting #swatch #swatches #black #gray

  12. all minis have now swatch cards :artcapy4:

  13. Today I made #swatches of my two inks from the other week. #pilot #iroshizuku hotaru-bi and hana-ikada. I had some real troubble finding a close ink in my collection to the hotaru-bi but found some close to the pale pink of the hana-ikada.

    Also: Hot tip: If you have a fav paper you use most of the time, use it for swatches too. That way the ink will show up the same way in your swatches as on your pages ✒️👍🙂

    I sacrificed a rhodia dot pad for these 😉

  14. Had five of the colors in other brands and some of them were notably more intense. And the daVinci perylene green was greener. And can I just say I still don't much like Viridian but wowza the granulation. Was surprised that only one listed a different pigment. #watercolor #swatching #Comparisons #swatches
