ChromaMagic - the magical color tool for artists. Have you ever been painting and said 'but what *is* that color?' Me too! ChromaMagic exists for one reason only. My paintings looked wrong. I just couldn't get the colors in my paintings to look convincing. Try as I might there was always something off. Too bright, too light, too gray, not gray enough. Too blue, too brown, too pink. Why oh why could I not make things work? Well it turned out it wasn't in the paint. It wasn't in the mixing. Special brushes didn't do the trick. Making those daft color charts didn't help either. And it wasn't even in the way I put the paint on the paper. The problem was in my brain. The problem was that I had no chance of mixing the right color. I was missing an essential part of the painting process. Something that would take years if not decades to figure out. And the reason was that I wasn't *seeing* the right color. Now I don't mean there was something wrong with my eyesight. What I mean that I was 'seeing' color but I wasn't really seeing *COLOR*. I didn't have the words or the means to really understand what I was looking at. And if we don't really know what we're looking at how on earth can we translate it into paint? Even if we don't want to represent what we see how do we know what to change to enhance the effect? Flip a coin? Trust chance and experimentation? Repeat for years and years until we stumble on something that works....? No. So what changed? Everything changed. I learned to forget about primaries, secondaries and tertiaries. I learned to ditch the traditional artists wheel. I learned to stop talking about 'warm' and 'cool'. I learned to see color the way it is and not the way I expect it to be. I had to forget everything I had been told. I learned about hue, value, and chroma. Munsell. With ChromaMagic you can load up any photo or reference and see at a glance what any color is. And the colors are described in a way that is most natural for artists. What is the hue (red, yellow, green etc)? Yes! And what is the value (very important)? Yes! And what is the chroma (how gray or saturated it is)? Yes!!! Color makes so much more sense now. But there's more! As well as the Munsell color mode (which is fabulous by itself!) there are 4 extra modes to help you really see what is before us. - Want to organize your reference into the major value shapes? Value mode will do that and you can change the number of value steps with a click of the mouse. - Want to reduce your reference to just grayscale to really see those fine-grained values? Yes! - Want to see how saturated or gray your colors are (this is always surprising!). Yes! - Want to see how your colors are distributed around the color wheel? Yes And yet there's still more: - No more clicking around - ChromaMagic has a fantastic new interface with buttery smooth zoomable, pannable images. - No more need to be tethered to wifi. Take ChromaMagic anywhere - even up a mountain! - Too many colors in your reference? Average your colors over multiple pixels - 2500 of them if you want to. - Want to know which paints are available for a certain color? ChromaMagic now has links to hundreds of top quality oil paints. - Want to use ChromaMagic at home? On the bus? On a tablet? Now you can run it on your iphone, ipad or mac. All for one price! - No more silly loading buttons. Drag and drop your files in one swish on the desktop (Bliss!!) - Use ChromaMagic next to the easel for mixing. Now with mixing swatches and calibration values (no need for $1500 Munsell chips) }

I’ve never left a review of an app before, but I love this app! It’s crazy how awesome I think this is. I’m new to oil painting and struggle with color and values. This app is absolutely a game changer in helping me learn. Some might consider it a crutch, but watch some of the Paul foxton videos on how he uses it and you’ll likely be sold like I am.

This app was already special enough to get me to pay for it (rare for me). Also whenever I show it to other people, even non-artists are amazed at its capabilities. I think it updated, because now it has even more functionality than it did less than a year ago. I was using this app and another one at the same time to do what this app can do all by itself. It’s a workhorse of an app for me as a painter. If you’re a painter, just buy it.

This app is irreplaceable for the true seeing of a color… it’s a tool to help train you to see better. You may see one color and the app will let you know the color is a combination of colors…it’s richer knowledge of that color you’ll get…which in turn will make your painting better. It’s my belief, that having the knowledge is key to then using that information any way you want to. It’s a learning tool. It also gives you the option to see just the values. There’s a lot there I haven’t used yet…lots of exploring to do. The cost is so minimal…there’s no reason not to have this learning tool in your arsenal. Thank you, Michele! Great going! Or should I say, Great giving!!

This is based on the Munsell system but works great without it . I am using it for Plein Air Painting, to get a good value structure and then to identify colors. Having it on my phone is very handy and then in the studio I use it on my IPad.

I was watching Paul Foxton talk about “Chroma Magic”. I downloaded it immediately, this coupled with the Munsel Big book of color are very important tools for every artist! This is amazing! I am half way through a painting and wanted to verify my values, colors and chroma, all I can say is this is a must have. Easy to use and worth every cent! I love it. Thank you Paul for mentioning it and I look forward to seeing you and Michelle in videos and learning!

This one app does the work of 5 I had before. Its hard to find really workable Munsell oriented color apps, this one not only has Munsell but 2 other systems as well and integrates with Lightroom well. Plus its very intuitive to use I was up and running full speed on the first try. Some may think its pricy but worth every penny and more for the depth of information you get and how much time it saves me as a painter. Really a stellar app made by a very fine artist who really understands what is needed for visual art. Thanks Michelle!
