I use color wheels all the time, I find they are full of inspiration.This website above has really wonderful color wheels that are free to download. Print them out and keep them in your art, stitching or crafting space for when you are working on a project. You will be surprised how many times you will refer to them. I actually keep all the charts close by.
Here are a few more color chart websites that I use.
Color Scheme Designer Fabulous site to play with color and design combinations.
Patternwall.com All kinds of seamless patterns that you can download for free.
Colour lovers Explore over a million color palettes.
The SDC Color Museum A nice to explore everything color.
This website is just full of color information, click on everything.....you will find that your creative thinking will expand the more you explore color websites.
Enjoy color.....look around and notice all the different palettes that surround you. Look closely at the shades of nature outside. The natural colors that surround you everyday. Think about how you feel when you look at different colors.........what colors make you happy, what colors bring you peace.......it all is magic. Artists feel color and use it to express their feelings and emotions.........it comes naturally to us. Be more aware as you go about your day and the way you feel about the colors in your world. You will be amazed when you really start noticing how it effects your moods.........give it a try..........
Enjoy your colorful day.........
I'll be .........in the studio.
