As promised, here are all the palettes which I used for my 1-hour color study challenge. Feel free to use them for your own practice or however you find helpful. 🌟 What did I do in that 1-hour study? Every day I limit myself for an hour to observe and play with colours to create a scene. It's a thumbnailing process. I played with complementary colours, different layer modes, different ways to show highlight and shadow and more. I did it for 12 days and here are my top 8! Which one will you…

Description I'm learning both color and composition with these little paintings. The limited color choices force me to think outside of the box while I start to understand how each color interacts with each other. And the composition part is pretty simple, haha. I plan to keep doing these, they're actually quite helpful! Not to mention like, really super fun.
