I like to make a color swatch of each color. This takes some time but it is fun to do! You can learn a lot about your colors this way. I start by cutting pieces of watercolor paper 3" x 1.5".
I write the name of the color and the manufacturer of the paint on the back side of the paper. Then I wet the front of the paper and paint it. I try to have lay the color on thick and thin to see how dark it can get. When it is dry I write the name of the paint on the front of the paper.
When I decide on a color, I start to lay the tubes of paint around my palette to see where they will go.
