From Problem to Product
As an artist, I noticed a common challenge in the creative community: crafting cohesive color palettes can eat up valuable time and derail creativity. Seeing an opportunity, I launched dotSwatches, an Etsy shop offering ready-made, meticulously curated Procreate color palettes.
The response? Over 523 sales and a perfect streak of 98 five-star reviews.
By identifying a pain point and providing a simple, effective solution, I’ve helped artists worldwide focus on what they do best—creating. This experience sharpened my skills in product development, user-centric design, and customer engagement, proving my knack for spotting needs and delivering results.
Artists around the globe are loving dotSwatches! Here’s what they’re saying:
“These have been so useful as I transition from watercolor painting on paper to digital painting via Procreate. Perfection!”

“Really great palette, helped tremendously with my artwork. This seller's palettes have always been very stellar.”

“Beautiful colors, and the shop owner was super accommodating for a request! Will definitely be purchasing another palette in the future :)”

These reviews show just how much a simple, thoughtful solution can transform an artist's workflow.
