No. 014, in nineteen platesSo So Colourful
Nineteen plates that took one look at the full rainbow and decided to use every single colour.
The name undersells it. This is a loud, warm and generous collection drawn in several hands at once: fine felt-pen line work packed with rainbow strokes, cut-paper shapes with soft drop shadows, glossy fluid forms and close-up rainbow fur. What ties it together is a shared box of colours, tangerine, hot pink, teal, violet and egg-yolk yellow, used at full strength everywhere.
The line-drawn landscapes are the heart of it. White Sun Sea sets a pale moon-like sun over purple hills and teal water combed from thousands of strokes; Three Sails puts small boats on the same striped sea beneath a golden sun; Crystal Valley grows spiky peaks around a lemon sun. Stained Glass and Paisley Eyes trade landscape for leaded black outlines filled with rings and teardrops. Elsewhere you will find Carved Scrolls and Scroll Garden, dense swirls that look cut from painted wood, the paper chevrons of Chevron Splash, and Retro Stripes and Rising Stripes, diagonal bands with a vintage vignette.
On a phone, the line-drawn seas work best on the Lock Screen: their skies are open enough for the clock, with the detail gathered lower down. The scrolls, fur and paisley plates are patterned to every edge and feel more like fabric behind your icons. For the cleanest Home Screen, Paper Steps and Retro Stripes give big flat blocks of colour where widgets can sit tidily.
Pick this if your phone case is already bright and you want the screen to keep up. Paper Currents, Cut-Paper Blobs and Floating Bubbles are free in full resolution. The other sixteen are premium: unlock any one for 10 credits and keep it for good, or open the whole set with pxCream Unlimited.
Every colour in the box, and none of them sent home early.
Try each one on before you save it.
Tap any plate to hang it on the Lock Screen, then switch to the Home Screen to see it behind your apps. This is the same preview the app gives you, on your own phone, with your own clock.
Every plate here can be ordered as an unframed matte print, from A$59 with free shipping. Or hang three side by side: any three plates from So So Colourful, 8 × 16 in each, for A$179.

About So So Colourful.
Which So So Colourful plates can I try first?
Paper Currents, Cut-Paper Blobs and Floating Bubbles download free in full resolution. The remaining sixteen unlock individually for 10 credits each, or all together with pxCream Unlimited.
Is there a calmer plate among all this colour?
Soft Focus is the gentlest, a blur of yellow, blue and white, and Paper Steps is bold but very orderly. Both sit quietly behind icons.
