Stealing Color

Purpose

To derive extensive and specific color palettes from images for use in painting applications.

This mini-utility is a work in progress and makes temporary use of "simple CMYK" color conversion.

Choose Paint

Amount of Paint per Color

estimate in grams - numbers only please
Recommendation: For Tempera and Artists Acrylic paints, 30 grams will yield about 1 ounce.
Recommendation: For Acrylic Latex paints, 300 grams will yield about 1.5 cups (roughly).
Recommendation: For Instar paints, formulations will be output in drops. Enter 20 for the maximum number of total drops of paint you will need. If working larger, you may enter 50.
Recommendation: Add a slight bit extra of the dominant color you are trying to mix (just a little). For example, if the color is a little light, add a bit more white, if it's dark, less white. If it's kind of bluish, add a little more blue.
