Heather Abstract Watercolor
An ethereal abstract exploration from the recent color study with beige, teal, and violet.

Color Study: Beige, Teal, & Violet

color study
For the first color study from the new mixed-media swatches, I chose shades of beige, teal, and violet. It’s a palette I’ve used before, but there are some more subtle variations this time.

Mixed-media Color Swatches

Color swatches
I’m collecting color swatches of colored pencils, acrylic markers, and watercolors to start doing some color studies. It’s a way for me to generate new ideas and explore new color combinations.
