How to use the Color Picker

Color Picker lets you upload an image, click a pixel, and analyze that color. Without a palette you get an RYB recipe. With a premium palette loaded, you can see matching paints and mix suggestions from colors you already have.

Sign in, then open Virtual Artist Lab → Color Picker.

How to pick a color

  1. Upload a photo, screenshot, or artwork.
  2. Click a point on the image to sample it.
  3. Copy the HEX value, review the RYB breakdown, and adjust paint volume if needed.
  4. On premium plans, load a palette to see best matches and thinning previews.

Tips

  • Click solid areas when possible. Compression can shift single-pixel samples.
  • To sample a website color, take a screenshot and upload it.
  • This tool does not save colors automatically — copy HEX into My Palettes.

Core Color Picker features are free and do not use credits.
