Nature Inspired Color Palettes

By: Jennifer Stay February 22, 2016 – Posted in: Coloring Tools Free Coloring Tools

As I mentioned in a previous post, I love to find coloring inspiration in beautiful photos and images. Well, nothing inspires me more than nature–I am continually amazed at the color combinations found in the natural world, and I love applying those combinations to my art.

I have created several new nature-inspired color palettes that I’m excited to share with you! I hope that they inspire you and breathe some fresh excitement into your coloring. Just click the images below for larger versions that you can save to your computer or tablet. Okay, not all of the images below are technically “natural” but I liked the images and included them here anyway. 😉

  Thank you. I hadn’t thought of a dining room, but yes, I agree they might work for that! 😉

I love your beautiful Color Palettes its so inspiring. You should create a color palette coloring book with all the vivid colors to draw on each page. I would buy it.

These palettes are so helpful. I especially appreciated the Autumn Color Inspiration (fall leaf) one where you gave the colors with Prisma color numbers. Would love to see more of this! It helps me get ideas on picking colors from my pencil set.

This is extremely helpful to me. I am so indecisive on what colors to use that I get into a total rut of using the same few! Thanks!
