Finding A New Coloring Box

I often hear people claiming to be color-challenged.  And we all tend to gravitate towards our favorite colors.  Well it's time to step outside your coloring box!!  Whether you are choosing colors for your next fiber project or decorating a room or putting together an outfit - I have a color tool for you!

I am a picture taker and now that I can take as many as I want to without worry of having to get film developed I do just that- take as many as I want.  I take pictures for inspiration on my new designs.  Here are a few of my recent Bermuda Cruise that may show up in some upcoming designs in some form or another.

 

 

 

So what makes a great photo? One element of a great photo has to do with color. You can use those photos to create a color palette for your next project.  Take a look at the combinations of colors that were extracted from these photos that I took on various vacations, photos of artwork, and photos of everyday items.
