Smarty Paints vs Mixable

Watercolor paints, simplified: track what you own, find close-enough dupes, match your stash to any class supplies list, and finally remember which blue is *that* blue. - Can't remember which watercolor paints you already have at home? - Forgot which red you put in that palette, or whether it stains, granulates, or glazes? - Following a video tutorial and not sure your paint substitutes will behave the same way? - Or if you could *mix* a substitute with paints you already own? Smarty Paints can help. It's your watercolor sidekick: a searchable, stash-organizing, tutorial-matching watercolor app for anyone who's ever said "Shoot, which one's Quin Gold again?" *Search, Discover & Learn* Browse a growing database of 3000+ paints. Filter paints by brand, pigment code, transparency, granulation, and more. Go on, nerd out. *Palette Layouts That Match Real Life* Drag and drop your digital palette to match your real one—so you're not guessing which little paint pot is which. No more cross-referencing paint tubes or binders of hand-labeled swatches. *Color Theory Fast Track* Every palette gets the wheel treatment. Your paints plotted, so the missing slot is obvious at a glance. Find the gap. Plan the next pick. Finally see what "warm blue" means. *Follow Any Video Tutorial With Your Paints* Paste a link or browse tutorials right in the app. Smarty Paints maps every tutorial's paint to your collection — own it, have a dupe, or need to grab it — with property-level comparison so you know *why* a substitute works (or won't). No more pausing to wonder if your Phthalo Blue is close enough to the instructor's Prussian Blue. *Find Dupes (or Mix One Yourself)* Smarty Paints compares transparency, granulation, staining, pigment, and lightfastness across brands, so you can see exactly where a match holds up and where it doesn't. When it doesn't, find a mix recipe using paints you already own. No new tubes required. *Collection & Wishlist Tracking* See what you've got. Spot what you're missing. Track usage, log your favorites, and never buy the same paint twice. (Unless you meant to.)

Just hear it from some of the smartest: “I love this app!! It’s so fun to keep track of everything!!” - Michelle S. “I used the app this morning to see if I had a color that matched the one used in the tutorial I was watching. Thankfully I had one that was almost perfect. So it’s a very handy app.” - Barbara H. “I've been looking for an app like this for years. Finally something I can really use to track the pigments I use for each painting. I love it!“ - Tim G.

Mix any color from the paints you actually own. Mixable is a paint mixing guide built for artists who work with watercolor, acrylic, or oil. Pick any target color — from your camera, a photo, or a color wheel — and Mixable calculates the best possible match using only the paints in your palette, with exact ratios. How it works: • Build your palette by selecting the paints you own from real product lines • Choose a target color using your camera, photo library, or color picker • Get a precise mixing recipe with exact ratios from your paints • See how close the match is with a side-by-side comparison and Delta E accuracy score Real brands, real pigments: Mixable includes paints from Winsor & Newton, Daniel Smith, Schmincke, Golden, Gamblin, Liquitex, Van Gogh, and more — each mapped to its actual pigment composition. The mixing engine uses Kubelka-Munk color theory to predict how pigments blend, the same science used in paint manufacturing. Browse by pigment: Explore paints organized by their Color Index pigment codes. See which paints across different brands share the same pigments — and understand what's actually inside your tubes.
