....BONUS TRACK! Another Palette Creation Trick!

For a modern, super-harmonious palette for your art:

  • Save your current set of swatches if you want.
  • In the Swatches palette dropdown, load a set of swatches from the list. This one below is called "ANPA Colors." Its virtue is its medium, manageable size.

  • Do a screen capture. (Shift-cmd-3 in Mac, turn the top crank counter-clockwise on a PC)
  • Open the resulting file in Photoshop. Add a new layer, in the Multiply blend mode.
  • Fill (opt/alt-del) that top layer with any primary or secondary hue--pure and light, no browns or grays.
  • Adjust layer opacity to your taste.







  • Eyedropper the colors onto the Swatches palette and save, as detailed in the prior post!


COOL!

PS: Yes, I monkeyed with the third row to make some nearly white hues. Good for highlights!
