Unleash your creative expression with open-ended watercolor prompts
from the author of A Field Guide to Color.
With 62 cards, The Color Meditation Deck offers over 500 potential
combinations for endless color meditation opportunities. This deck gives
you the mental space to concentrate on the act of creating itself
instead of the anxiety that facing a blank page can give. It also adds a
layer of surprise and challenge, helping you to break out of "creator's
block" and find fresh inspiration.
Draw a color meditation card (such as "Triangles") and a parameter card
(such as "Limited Palette"), grab your watercolors and paper, and get
creative! Paint triangles in rows using red, yellow, and green. Or paint
them in a star-shaped pattern. Or paint them willy-nilly across the page
in all different sizes (equilateral? isosceles?). You can begin with the
full-strength colors and then slowly add in white to tint them lighter
each row. The options are endless and it's totally up to you! You can do
quick versions in 5-10 minutes or really slow down and paint for as long
as you'd like.
Whether you are an experienced artist or just getting started, these
cards will not only lead you to a new relationship with paint and color
but will offer a meditative break that can open you up for ideas and
inspiration in all areas of your life. With a booklet on basic color
theory, materials, and suggestions for how to get started, the deck
stands on its own--it is also a perfect companion for fans of A Field
Guide to Color who are looking for more color meditations. The package
offers a beautiful and colorful cigar-style box with magnetic closure.
