Color Cubes #269 - Due March 14, 2025

[jo.on.the.go]

Wow AndromedasWitchery - this is wonderful.
I am using my set of cubes to try new color combinations. I originally thought that a reduced palette would be limiting. Instead, I find it very freeing and I don't worry about what other colors to add. As I said earlier, once I match the colors on the Color Cube card, those are the only colors I use for my ATC. I put 5 colored pencils on my art table and ignore all my other pencils.
I will add you to our list.

Awww!
Thank you sooo much!!!
Admit - I looked for the Cubes on net, and are really interesting and useful tools, I think!!!
Personally, adore limited colors palettes, and this swap really made my muse work!!!
But was also sure to have centered the target!
Awww! Yay, thanks!
Have already some sketches ready!
Thank you again!!!

An. M. Sudyka your colorful cards arrived yesterday. I am posting images, but remember if you receive one of these cards, please post a "Reputation" for a post that was created by An. and not this posting. If you especially want one of these cards, let me know because I try to distribute the returns based on what you would like to receive.

This will be really fun to see everyone’s cards! I won’t be able to begin mine for a couple of weeks, but am I correct that we can use a very light saturation of those colors (pastel tones) as well as the deep saturation shown on the cube?

 

[jo.on.the.go]

CiCi feel free to use pastel tones - light saturation - if that is the way you want to make your cards. Often a delicate touch can be as powerful as deep saturation.

 

[CiCiCreates]

I appreciate the clarification. I probably wouldn’t do pale tones for the whole card, maybe a mix.
