Colour Study - Pink Tipped Chrysanthemum II

The second follow up in my colour study series, this one is for my Pink Tipped Chrysanthemum post. I have been using an app on line called chip it to help me to put select CoE 104 glass colour palettes using my own photos as source material.

The glass I have used is:

1. Lauscha Creme Brulee
2. CiM Olive
3. Lauscha Pink Opaque
4. Effetre Handpulled Rubino Ora (old batch)
5. Reichenbach Soft Violet

I'm really very happy with these beads and love these colours together despite the fact that my chosen selection did not include any of the most prevalent hues in the Chrysanthemum image. I really wanted to steer away from making beads that predominantly white and plumped instead for the pale lavender and caramel hues that chip it picked up. CiM Olive in particular behaved wonderfully well, splitting and pooling over the Rubino and both of the Lauscha bases beautifully.

Colour Study - Pink Tipped Chrysanthemum

The third in my series of colour studies for October is this pink tipped Chrysanthemum. I took the image last week walking back form preschool on a rainy morning.

I'm going to use a free program called Chip It which is a free app that samples any image and picks out a colour palette using over Sherwin-Williams paint colours. The final challenge for me is to try draw out a representative colour palette using CoE 104 Glass.....

The glass I have chosen for this palette from left to right is

1. Lauscha Creme Brulee
2. CiM Olive
3. Lauscha Pink Opaque
4. Effetre Handpulled Rubino Ora (old batch)
5. Reichenbach Soft Violet

I think it would have been nigh impossible to put this selection together without the inclusion of the gorgeous Handpulled Rubino Ora. There are so few of these deep rich fuchsia/magenta shades of glass available to buy in CoE 104 glass and my whole selection is two shades lighter across the board than I would have liked to be able to create but I think the relationships between the glass rods is similar to the Chip It palette for this image.
