For a long time I've been working with photos, either using the photo itself or duplicating it someway in fabric. For years, I would go to a home improvement store, bringing the photo with me in hopes of matching colors with paint chips. It worked pretty well, but time consuming and often some colors were overlooked. The photo below has lots of greens in it and what looks like a gray and rust.
And my love for old buildings and rocks has lots of different grays, greens, tans etc, hard to decipher.
I found this wonderful tool online. The site has you select a photo from your files and upload it. Within a few minutes all the colors featured in the photo appear on your screen
and in different value palettes. I've had so much fun with this site and it's also been a tremendous time saver. Go to the
Color Palette Generator and start uploading your photos, you'll be hooked. You can see the sample below (which they allow you to print out) of colors and the picture that was uploaded.
Have fun!
Fantastic fun with the palette generator!!
ReplyDeleteHi judy, love this site. It would help me give my students an idea of colors needed in their flower creations. I tried to download the chart so that I could print it but can't figure out how or where it goes to. The download said PS but it doesn't come up on my screen. Any help?
ReplyDeleteInteresting blog. It would be great if you can provide more details about it. Thanks you
