Color Cube Grande, Dusky Mauve & Earthy Mocha, no. 003

Color Cube Grande
Colors: Dusky Mauve + Earthy Mocha

Dusky Mauve is that soft purple that somehow looks like you have your life together. Warm, earthy undertones, a little dusty, a little vintage, and basically the color version of “I own at least one nice notebook.”

Earthy Mocha is a muted brown with a rosy warmth, like coffee with milk, but make it aesthetic. It’s grounding, flattering, and extremely useful for shadows, depth, and all the parts of a painting where you need things to feel real.

Together they make a ridiculously satisfying pair, because you can go light and airy with soft dusty washes, or build deep shadows and rich contrast without everything turning grey and sad. Which honestly is a life goal.

These Color Cubes are made for foam stamping. They are 100% watercolor, with no additives, no microplastics, and no toxins. Just pigment and binder, the way I like it.

They’re also stupid easy to use:

Spray your foam stamp.
Rub the Cube on.
Print.

No pans. No tiny brush choreography. No “why is my palette sticky again.” Just color.

Each Cube has two colors, which means you get blends right away, and you can create your own in-between tones directly on the stamp. It’s basically instant color mixing without having to pretend you planned it.

The Color Cube Grande is equivalent to 8 half pans, so it’s not just a cute little thing. It’s a real chunk of paint.

I’ve experimented with the shape of the larger Cubes, so they come either as a sleek rectangle or a classic square.

And yes, you can use them like normal watercolor too. Paint with a brush, or dip the Cube in water and draw directly on the paper. It feels slightly illegal. Very satisfying.

The multicolored stamp designs in some of the photos were created by Susanne from @mitkrearum, who applied different Color Cubes onto the ArtFoamies and blended the colors directly on the foam to create her own shades. That’s why the prints have those layered, mixed color effects.
