Colour Wheels for Triad Reference

Colour Triads Organised by Blues

This year I set my watercolour palette with a consistent set of colours so I could experiment with a finite set of colour combinations and triads. Below is my triad reference page for all the colour wheels I’ve created using:

• Cobalt Turquoise Light
• Manganese Blue Hue
• French Ultramarine
• Phthalo Blue
• Cobalt Blue

The list isn’t exhaustive – there are still plenty of triads I could create, but the ones on this page are ones I thought would get the most use.
