Create color palettes
In this lesson we will talk about color palettes.
Color is super important to me
when starting to create and design.
It is important because through it we can tell many things,
we can transmit emotions,
let our designs vibrate or dance,
and generate different ways of communicating through color.
I want to tell you how I look for these palettes
using the Procreate tool.
One of them is super simple.
From a canvas
that we already have set or that we can generate,
we will bring a new photo from photos.
Here I will choose the flower of the passionflower
to go seeing and recording the color palettes.
And now, as we can see, it is installed and generated there automatically.
I will bring the photo
from which we just took the color palette
and we will bring a new photo of the passionflower flower.
Let's find this color palette.
Let's go back to the palettes, click on +
and we will bring New from photos.
We will choose the same one to be able to compare.
This would be the color palette of this photo
and of this flower we have here the color palette.
We have another way to capture a color palette
in Procreate.
We generate a new canvas,
let's go back to the tool,
we give +
and we give the option of New with the camera.
What i'm going to do now
is to capture a color palette from an image.
If we start to move with the iPad we will see
how to start generating this color palette
and where I find it interesting I will click
to save that color palette.
I click like a photo
and we already have our new color palette saved.
Another option is, through Adobe Color,
generate looser pallets
without being thinking about a photo, it is more intuitive.
We can go looking for analogous colors.
I will be moving and I will be generating the palette
that I like it and that it works for my chosen universe.
I already know in this case that it will be good for me
a lilac palette,
because I saw that the passionflower has those colors,
so I could look for them over here.
When I have already defined, for example, these are monochrome,
what I do is save them,
I keep it in my library
and then I can find them to use.
It is not necessary to have the iPad or any other element to take them,
I can go through life walking and taking a certain color
Or sit and try colored pencils
with inks, with watercolors, and already define my palette.
Now I will show you what the color palettes are
that I will take to define this project.
I'll go to Procreate in the Palette Bar
and I'm going to see the palettes that we have and that we have acquired
with the photographs.
We have this palette that corresponds to this flower
and we will put "Side flower".
And to the one below, which corresponds to this ...
Perfect.
What we can do is bring some other palette.
I will choose some from photos.
I have some already determined that I used with Adobe Color.
I will choose these oranges that you just brought me
because I defined it based on the color of the passion fruit fruit.
On the other hand, I will bring other more lilacs,
because the passionflower flower has these rather strident colors
and I like to use them,
because it is something that I use a lot in my illustrations.
As I feel that the illustrations dance like this, they have life.
Also, I find it super interesting when making the "patterns".
Now that we have defined the color palette,
in the next unit we will begin to draw.
