Color Palette: Sweet Succulents
My six year old is in love with color palettes and has been begging me to let her help create some. She has a beautifully creative mind and I was very happy to oblige her sweet request. She chose succulents as the theme and chose the six photos we worked with this week. This kid is a plant lover through and through, so I wasn’t surprised at her theme choice.
FUCHSIA, NATURALLY
I always get excited when I see a great pop of bright purple or pink in nature! They contrast so beautifully with all the shades of green we normally associate with succulents.

SOOTHING SUCCULENTS
Those great earthy purples blend in just as nicely with the greens too.

FLASHY CACTI
Cacti are as colorful as coral! These almost look like ocean creatures to me and I love the intense bright colors!

GREEN WILDER
And you know I can’t resist a good (mostly) monochromatic look, especially with these blue-green shades.

PUT IT IN NEUTRAL
Even soft, dusty neutrals hold a place in the world of succulents.

Succulents are full of so many gorgeous colors and textures, which made it really fun and easy to make these six new palettes! I could have made a million of these. I hope you enjoy checking these out and I would love to hear how they inspire you! Let me know which is your favorite and what you would use it for (interior decorating, branding, wardrobe, painting, etc.) in the comments.
In an effort to foster a creatives community I’ve started a Facebook group called Art is a Record, the same name as this blog. I would love for you to join in the fun as we discuss creative living, projects, art, and life.
