Hi, I am a friend of Eskies, and she told me about your channel. I have seen the color cubes since I also enjoy adult coloring. I never thought to try them with watercolor. That is so cool.
Hello there! I’m so happy you’re here and that you enjoyed this video! The color cubes are incredibly versatile-I’m happy you enjoy using them while adult coloring!! Excellent ❤️🙌🏼
That was really cool. Exploring color mixes from a limited palette gives one surprises. It was interesting choosing non-summery colors. Great demo.❤
Hi Deann-thank you! Yes I was happy with the surprises that resulted! Fun to experiment and get a win now and then😉😂👩🏻🎨❤️❤️
The red of the raspberries makes me think of pomegranate seeds. I do like Sarah's color cubes and i have them. There is a channel creator on here who goes by Emma LaFebvre. She is amazing when it comes mimicking or matching colors with her professional Winsor and Newton paints. She can make any color at all with those paints. In my opinion there is no one better than her when it comes to color mixing. And she is a good artist.
Emma is very talented, yes! Thanks for watching and commenting, Diane! I’m happy you enjoy the Color Cubes!
You're welcome, by the way. You also rock. I hope you didn't feel diminished because i forgot to say how awesome you are.@artonthecreek
@dianethoroughman9541 oh, my goodness no!!! I encourage everyone to learn from as many different artists and teachers as possible! The world is a big place-plenty of room for everyone 💙💙💙 Thank you for your added kindness, Diane. You help make what I do here very worthwhile-I always enjoy seeing your name in the comments!👩🏻🎨😊
These cubes remind me of the WIRSIT INSPO posts on the Jamieson and Smith blog.... have you ever seen them? They take a photo of something in the Shetland Islands and match the colors from the photo with their (enormous) selection of shetland wool. In my ind, the idea then is to take one of the color sets and use them in a color work pattern. The final result is miles away from the original inspiration but the colors should work together beautifully...... I have one of their books; remind me to show it to you!
Actually I have seen them and I follow them on Instagram. At least I think it’s the same group-really beautiful wool created from the colors in a field of heather, for instance. Their photos like that are so pleasing to look at!!
Very informational! Thank you!
You’re so welcome! I’m happy you found this useful!
I’ve seen these on Amazon and UA-cam, I didn’t think that I would use them much until watching your video…..
Hello! Thanks for watching and commenting; much appreciated ❤️ I honestly felt the same way about these initially-so pretty to look at but didn’t quite get the purpose. Now, I’m hooked!
If you do get some I hope you enjoy using them! 🎨 🌈 ❤️
I Have both of them as well and I love them. I find they are wonderful, especially when I am really stuck about what to paint and I can't think of colors or I hate all my paints or any of those other reasons we sit round and just lack inspiration for anything.
Extremely well-stated! Yes! 🙌🏼 💯 ❤️❤️
Why would you hate all your paints? I can’t even imagine that. Do you need a new palette? More variety?
I think Marlena may have been exaggerating on that statement-kind of like when you have nothing to wear or hate all your clothes.☺️
@@artonthecreek hmm guess I never feel that way. 😄 I love all my things.
@@LCLand you are fortunate!
I have been interested in the Color Cubes for a while. Now I know how you can creatively use the cubes. Thank you. I love your painting.
Hi JoAnne! Thank you so much! If you decide to get the Color Cubes I hope you enjoy them!!
i have been toying with getting them for months. lots of card makers have them. i need to stretch my pallet. lol
Hellooooooo Toni!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️ I miss you we need to get together! I can show these to you before you buy if you like-I didn’t quite understand their value at first but now I’m totally hooked! Huge love to you & Roxy💕
I could never understand any picture with colour swatches. Are the swatches meant to be the colours in the picture or are they the colours that I need to mix to get the colours in the picture?
On the color cube cards, the swatches of color are exact matches to the key colors found in the example photo. Their digital hex codes and value variations are on the reverse of each card.
If you go to Sara's website, it might be helpful to you. She gives a simple explanation, said different ways. Since she is a colored pencil artist, there are a myriad of colors that come in a set of pencils so as a painter with 12 to 48 or so colors in your paintbox, you will end up mixing up some colors. This helps you learn mixes, too.
I enjoy just looking at the boxes on my table, too, being a color junkie 😂
@JC-il4or thanks for sharing! There is a link to Sarah’s website in the video description ☺️
@@artonthecreekThanks!
@@JC-il4or😂
Huh… you have been the only artist I have watched using these colour cubes, and managing to sell me on the fact that they can indeed be a very useful tool. Am I wrong in thinking that when they first came out, they were more expensive, than what you paid? I do remember my eyes bleeding at the shipping costs from Australia though 🫣 Perhaps if I am in funds once more over the coming months/year(!) I will splurge on them as a gift to myself, but this shall be highly unlikely until at least Christmas/Birthday 2025!! 😢 Thank you for a wonderful explanation, resulting in an extremely successful painting. 👩🏻🎨🎨🖌️👏🏻❤️
Anita, you and I are so alike! When these first came out, I didn’t even see why they would be useful. That’s evidenced in how long I waited to purchase them, and I genuinely am happy with them because they are so versatile. I enjoy using a limited palette in colors that go against the normal expected range of colors for a subject-I’m sooo happy you enjoyed this and the final painting!
Save your pennies for that rainy color cube day lol🥰
@@artonthecreek “rainy colour cube day” 😂😁
@@anitadavidson1266 😂😂
Ann, mix PO73 with any darker, granulating Blue and watch the magic happen! Okay back to the video!
Excellent! Thank you so much. I will give it a try for sure. It sounds like it would be an amazing mix!!
