Abstract
A method is provided that comprises receiving, from a user device, a first input indicating a first color, from a color palette, as a source color. The method further comprises receiving, from the user device, a second input indicating a second color from the color palette as a target color. The method also comprises receiving, from the user device, a plurality of user movement indicators representing an incremental mixing of the target color into the source color. The method further comprises defining a plurality of colors based on the first input, the second input and the plurality of user movement indicators. The method also comprises storing, data associated with each color from the plurality of colors. The method further comprises sending, for each color from the plurality of colors, a signal to display a representation of that color on the user interface associated with the user device.
