This is the ONLY video I’ve seen on the Color Cube that shows every card. I’m sure I’m not the only one who wanted to see that. So I thank you. It is an important thing to do on camera for viewers. God bless.
Love using them with so many projects! Hoping she brings out even more color cubes for more celestial scenes, like moonlight, and other types of texture cube ideas.
Thanks for showing your process of categorizing and organizing. That was my big question. Picking at random is only minimally useful for me, and having to flip thru 500 cards every time I wanted color ideas would be a nightmare. 😊. Thanks for showing every card too.
Agreed! I am sure there is a clever way to ameka spreadsheet but that seemed like a lot of work too. :) Taking out cards with same color family like tons of red on a card or tons of greens on a card didn't make sense to me so those were taken out along with color pallets that I wasn't attracted to.
Thanks for doing this. I have had both boxes for over a year but just grabbing a card at random has really not worked for me. So I have hardly used them. I may try this.
Yes, I was worried that would happen for me too. Since it is an investment to purchase these cubes, I think removing color cards you know you wont use, then sorting by categories, or things you want to learn is a great way to always use these for every project. Another great way too is planning ahead. Select the coloring pages you want to color for the month and consider the color pallets for the entire month along with selecting the different coloring pencils (if you have a couple of coloring pencil sets you like that works great. But that keeps it easy for me to grab the book/materials and color without having to figure out the color pallets one at a time. Shared how I do this here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HGvFA554tDM.html
No, it doesnt share how to mix the colors and pair two color palette cards, but that would be neat if it did. I do know that some of these color palettes in the set are created based on color theory. If you do a search color theory you'll find there's a lot of knowledge out there that can help you on selecting colors that go well together. But, what I like to select colors based on 1) my favorite colors *teals/magenta/purple and a dark yellow, then I consider the colors I need (wood colors browns or stone greys, or leaves and trees I select greens and yellows, and then I figure out the cards based on that. Not sure if that helps, but that's how I do it. :D
Hi Sue, I enjoyed volume 2 more, it had some steampunk/neon colors/wildlife, and sky scenes, that I enjoy using as reference cards to color (not just for color palettes).
