Paint Mixer

A colour picker that thinks like a painter. Squeeze paint onto the palette, push blobs together and watch them goo into each other. Blue plus yellow makes green, not mud-grey, because the mixing is pigment-based, not RGB.

Tap a blob to read it.
Drag paint out of a well, then push two blobs together.

Blue and yellow make green here, not grey: the mix happens in pigment space, like real paint.
