I am thrilled to have come across an app that allows you to input what paints you have on hand and tells you to mix what colors you need from your resource photo! It's truly brilliant! And accurate. I've played with it for a week and have learned so much about color mixing. I'm even getting out some paints I haven't ever opened before to use! It's actually pretty addictive! The designers are amazing and open to suggestions. Y'all are going to thank me for this!
Sometimes I just have too many options! Especially with the help of the Artist Assit App I came across! You can get help with every different color mix possible in your painting! It's really, TOO much! TOO helpful 🤪😂… and I love it! But I've had to rein myself in and realize I can't have a hundred exact mixes on one painting! Maybe just thirty or forty! 🙄. Really though, if you need help figuring out a certain paint mix that maybe has you stumped (or maybe that's just me half of the time)…. this app is AMAZING!
I've never had soooo many colors to have to manage as in this beautiful dahlia! You wouldn't believe it…. I didn't even think about painting her until I came across this incredible app! It helped me get “unlost” and really make me “see” all the beauty colors and how to mix them. Too many colors! But it sure has been FUN! I think I'm going to have to plant a whole bed of these this year just to remind myself of how much I loved painting this winter. And how much I've learned! (Really that's just an excuse to buy more dahlias!) 😂
This FREE app is a game changer for all artists. I stumbled across it and am absolutely in LOVE with it! You enter what paints (or colored pencils) you have on hand… upload your inspiration photo…. The app will tell you exactly how to mix whatever colors you need help with (with the paints you have on hand)!!! It saves the color mixes for you. And that’s just a small part of what the app does. You can even “play” with your paints virtually and try different “mixes” out without wasting your real paint! I can’t tell you how incredible this is. It’s ridiculous that it’s free.
The most incredible new tool for artists! Mixing the exact color you need could not be any easier. I’ve been using this app for several months and find it extremely accurate in the colors it recommends to mix together. They have thought of everything. My painting time has increased because now I’m not wasting hours trying to figure out how to mix certain colors. Painting is less stressful and I’m actually enjoying and learning more about color mixing. Really, color mixing is only part of what the app offers to help with. I’m so grateful to the artist I learned this from and now I’m hoping to help others. 💕
