Russ Abbott has spent much of the past decade helping tattooers with their understanding of color theory. Through his seminar "The Tattooist's Palette", the Abbott Color Wheel, and most recently, the formulation of Digital Palettes for a wide range of ink brands, Abbott has helped thousands of tattooers reach new heights in their work. In that spirit, Russ has decided to release a FREE Color Theory eBook to supplement his already diverse educational offerings.

This digital download includes a PDF poster of the Abbott Color Wheel, along with a smaller .jpg image that can be useful as a digital version to select Eternal Ink colors for use in Adobe Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint. You are free to view these files on any device, or print them out at home or in your local fine-art print shop. The PDF is sized to 16" X 20" which is the recommended size for printing and framing. 

The Abbott Color Wheel features scientifically measured samples of the complete line of color tattoo pigments from Eternal Ink (247 Colors). The colors have been carefully arranged by hue, value, and saturation to give the artist the most comprehensive view of tattoo pigment imaginable. By viewing the ACW through the attached "Gamut Masks", the artist can quickly visualize a range of color schemes to use in the tattoo or art project. 

The Digital Layered File version of the Abbott Color Wheel allows us the opportunity to offer more gamut masks than what is available with the printed version. This file is for users of Adobe Photoshop, Clip Studio Paint, and now Procreate. By opening the .psd file in one of these programs, you will be able to toggle on/off the visibility of each gamut mask and rotate the mask above the color wheel. Visualizing color schemes in this way is a very quick and intuitive process. Advanced users may choose to design their own gamut mask shapes to personalize their color palettes even more.

Russ has designed these frames with the working tattooer in mind. Included in this digital download PDF are 5 frames with an alternate version of each frame.
