The Seahorse watercolor color palette

This soft, airy palette is anchored by Light Orange (#FFEBD3), the dominant wash across the seahorse set. Dusky Orange and Pale Orange carry the midtones, and Deep Red (#F1684C) grounds the shadows and outline work. Together they capture the soft, layered look of the original hand-painted artwork — copy any value below, or export the whole set as CSS variables, an Adobe ASE, GIMP or Procreate swatch file.

Cross-stitch & marker conversions

Because UsefulPix is built for crafters, every color is already matched to the nearest physical thread and marker, so you can take this palette off-screen. For embroidery and cross-stitch, the closest DMC floss are DMC 739 (Tan Ult Vy Lt), DMC 3853 (Autumn Gold Dk), DMC 3855 (Autumn Gold Lt), DMC 3825 (Pumpkin Pale). For marker and Copic work, reach for Copic E51 (Milky White), Copic YR65 (Atoll), Copic YR31 (Light Reddish Yellow), Copic E15 (Dark Suntan). These are perceptual nearest-matches (CIEDE2000), so treat them as a faithful starting point and check a physical shade card for critical work.
