Polymer clay purple and pink color mix - 66 of 366 creative days

66/366 - Color mix for flowers and more

The mix is done regardless of company and turned out pretty well.
It goes well specially when you want to soften FIMO hardness.
Studio Sculpey is a very soft clay that goes softer with hand heat(specially if you have warm hands by default). Studio and PREMO Sculpey seems to remain soft over the years compared to FIMO classic.
So please see below the color mix that I played with (that's why the random combos), was a lot of fun and element of surprise.

a - Materials

  1. Premo Sculpey Accents Pearl - 5101

  2. Premo Sculpey Accents Magenta Pearl 2029 - the light pink that was used for this experiment was discontinued in 2015(can be mixed from 8 parts Premo Accents Pearl 5101 + 1 part Premo Fuchsia 5504), the 2016 version is a strong pink.

The quantity of acrylic added, made the polymer clay a bit brittle, so I added a bit of Premo for mold making. Because of the grey, the color are not very bright, but with a bit of earthy look.

Are they getting better? - 55 of 366 creative days

55/366

For the fifty sixth of 366 creative days I have done, yet again, more palettes. I will add them to the list now. I like them more as I do them, but are they getting better?

Two_fairiesLove_in_the_sea
UtopieA_singing_sheep

  They are all done from other people colors, they are called 1LP - one lover color palettes. I have also done a lot of pattern coloring as well, but too much work to post them here and not enough time as usual. You can see them at Diana Colors patterns

Test pattern templates - 53 of 366 creative days

53/366

  For the fifty third day of 366 creative days I have tried to do few pattern templates to help me out in some color mixing, as well as a pattern template to help me out see different types of color quantities in a design, unfortunately that one seamless lite become unresponsive and gave me a flash error when I got it to 75% and lost everything I did.
 The two pattern templates(with examples of color mixing) I have done. The third color mixing one is kind of fail...

  In the last pattern you can actually see the color mixing if you get closer and further away from the image.
