one thing i kinda wish i'd yoinked from my old job before i left was the swatch book that was like a Pantone Matching System for salmon, with different %s of carotenoids to be added to their feed to get a desired shade of pink. Funny cuz i used PMS swatchbooks in my former life as a designer

20 years ago when I was at the Powerhouse Museum we did one of the very first public domain high res releases of historical swatchbooks. It even supplied the basis of the swatch by colour that was reused when we did the Cooper Hewitt work! www.core77.com/posts/3163/P...

I still have some pretty paper samples from the years I spent doing print design! But those swatchbooks are totally useless now.

Turning a watercolor journal into a swatch book of all my watercolors. I like how its turning out so I ordered some more watercolor/mixed media journals for swatchbooks of my other mediums

Wait, no, the swatchbooks? Use them for collage the way you would paint samples.
Ironically, Pantone's sketchbooks were YOU HAD ONE JOB shit, with cheap, awful paper.

My wife DOES insist that The Good Ink gets seated first when on display and is financially DANGEROUS if allowed near swatchbooks/samplebooks, fwiw.

Me? I just like my 2024 Lamy special edition inks. Both are so glorious!
