 Hello everybody, welcome back to another Adobe Photoshop CC tutorial. I'm in Photoshop CC 2019 and I'm going to show you how to create your own swatch, your own unique color swatch from scratch here. So let's just get right into this. I've got a stock image selected here and it's really really nice. And the reason why you'd want to do something like creating your own swatches, let's say you select a color like in here that you really like the color of the mountain or the sky and you want to reuse that specific color in this project or other projects, you can create a swatch and that's how you do it. So let's just dig right in. First step is you want to go, once you've got an image open, you want to go to your eyedropper tool. Now I've got it over here, right here you're going to see here eyedropper. I'm going to open it up just so you see, just press that and you've got eyedropper, good to go. The next step is you want to select the color that you really, really like. Now I'm just going to go ahead and say this color blue here between where the sky gets starts to go between the light colors and the darker sky. Beautiful color. I want that. I'm going to left click on it and at the top you're going to see the nice teal color. Boom, we've selected the color. Now the color shows up here in the color section and it also shows up here as the foreground color. Now the next step to come along with me is you want to go to your swatches panel. Now if your swatches panel isn't open, it's one of the different windows that you can open. So you go up here to window and make sure the check mark is beside swatches just in case it's not open. It should be open but whatever we'll see. Now the next step is you want to go here to this little hamburger menu. Left click on that and then you want to go to new swatch. Now when you do that you see here the color which is the one that we selected. We have the option to name it. So I'm going to name this sky teal and I also have the option to check or uncheck to add to my current library. I'm going to add it to my library just so you guys can see it. I'm going to left click on okay. Couple things happen. One it's in my library which is great. Two in the swatches panel at the bottom you're going to see here that I've got this color now and when I hover over it it says sky teal. So if we were to go to another document like this one and let's just say I was to select this rectangle and I was to left click on the teal. Well I can go ahead and make the color too. Well let's just create a new box just so you can see it. So left click going to run and drag it. The color here is yellow. I don't want it to be yellow. I left click on it. I'm going to go down here to the new color that I used that we created and boom. We are now using the new swatch and it is good to go. That's why you use swatches create in new documents you can reuse this color over and over and over again without having to go in and do all that other monkey stuff. So that's all you got to do guys. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. I got a lot more stuff coming up. Be back soon.
