One way to instantly level up your color skills
Color is definitely one of my favorite parts of the creative process.
Yet, it can be a tricky thing to get right.
Recently I read an informative article by Greg Gunn aptly titled How to not suck at color. It well worth the read and packed with great information on ways to improve in the color aspect of the creative process.
Yet one tip, in particular, struck a chord with me.
- It is easy to implement
- Requires minimum tools
- Can be quickly adopted into your creative process to check if your color palette is on track or completely missing the mark.
Colour can breathe life into a project, bring a brand to life or help in effectively communicating your message.
It is important and provides value beyond making a design aesthetically pleasing.
Often when working on a project I find the color palette works well together yet something is missing.
What is missing is difficult to pinpoint. It is frustrating and can be time-consuming to figure out.
This is where this one tip can help.
A useful tool that can perhaps forever banish color confusion in the creative process.
