Like that round color wheel swatchie.😊

Swatching is not only important but I find it really relaxing and enjoyable.

I really started swatching watercolour paints when I realised that only because two colours have the same name, that doesn't mean they are the exact same colour. They still both are, say, a medium brown, but with very different leanings.

How do i make this circular watercolor chart…..this will be so useful ….It looks like you cut your a very large circle of watercolor paper? Or poster board. (What size is the circle….i have a lot of paints…then it looks like you swatched each of your colors (what size is each section) and glued them to the circle?

Great tips. Any clue what paper is best for swatching?

Don't forget-- Swatch on the paper you are using!
