Every time the color was on a color palette, I thought “no, that’s not it”, but every time you put in on paper I gasped “wow!”
This looks like some kind of magic to me! 😮

[mzkatbee]

Wow, you're a master in color mixing!

[selahkin]

Emma, please do more of these color matching videos! You are amazing! I learned so much about color matching watching you do this. Without this instruction I’m not sure I could color match on my own. Thank you again.

This might be great for choosing yarn colors for crochet projects. I am intrigued!

[jillbalsam]

There is also an interactive PDF digital version (which I purchased with the two boxes) that you can search by color, subject, etc. and it refers you to the color cube. Such fun!!! That is a beautiful palette that you chose to paint with.

Emma, girl….. you’re really something else.
Do you even realise how talented you are ? How inspiring ?
Keep on the good work 🎉

[lorihill]

Emma … you’re like some kind of colour mixologist! Just Beautiful. Would love to watch you do more of these demos. Have a wonderful day! 👏

[cathymelling]

Can u do more videos like this with the cubes

[rebeccajeter]

I could watch this type of video all day. I loved seeing how you mixed the colors and then see how you used them. Can't wait to see you use more of the Color Cubes!

[beccabrinkley]

I love this with the color companion which is her digital version so you can flip through that and just pull the corresponding number from the box!!

[gayleh]

This is so awesome. I also over those older videos where you color matched in real time. More of those for sure!

[kla]

She also has a color catalog along with "companions" for prismacolor, inktense, Polychromos and one other for matching those color pencils. Nothing for Neocolors I or II yet.

[rwuuipw]

That was some spectacular color matching! Bravo! I think Ultramarine Blue is actually a warm blue, which is how you mixed that last beautiful green. Thanks for showing us!

[nicolabrown]

I love my colour cubes but there are almost too many choices with the two boxes and 500 cards to choose from. It was great watching you mix these colours. You really are a master!

[plamenkaaaaa]

I love it! The worst part is when you didn't mix enough paint and you have already forgotten what colors you have used, so it is a struggle every time I need to mix the same again😑 A lot of practice is required to become as good as you ❤️

[mareecornell]

I love using Sarah Renae Clarke's Color Cubes! They truly do kick start the creative process.
LOVE LOVE LOVE to watch you do more of these colour mixing and matching videos. Like I have read in so many comments - it is fascinating watching and learning how to mix to achieve the right colour and tone. You have an incredible talent x

[janawright]

I love my color cubes and online catalog too! I use it constantly… ❤️

[daphnebenjamins]

Wow!! I'm signing up for your mixing colors class. Awesome video again did get the color cube but find it hard to mix as close to the colors pallets. Wonderful work Emma!

[ellenbecker]

She also has digital versions (pdf) of he cubes that can be categorized by topics.

You don’t need words, you speak so well in colours! 😃
