If you love coloring with alcohol markers, a color chart is one of the best tools you can have! It lets you swatch every single marker so you always know exactly what a color looks like on paper before you touch your artwork. No more guessing — just grab your chart and pick! 🎨
I created a free Canva template so you can make your own chart at home, plus a YouTube video where you can watch me fill mine in. Below you’ll find both the blank template and the numbered version — download, print, and start swatching!

The chart comes in two versions: a blank chart (page 1) for you to write in your own marker numbers, and a pre-numbered chart (page 2) already filled with common alcohol marker codes including warm greys (WG), cool greys (CG), and blue greys (BG).

How to Use Your Alcohol Marker Color Chart
- Print on 120–160 gsm paper for best results with alcohol markers.
- Works on US Letter or A4 paper sizes.
- Write the marker number in each box before you color it — easy to lose track otherwise!
- Place a plastic sheet or spare paper underneath to prevent bleed-through.
- Let each swatch dry fully before moving to the next one.
- Swatch in natural light so the colors are true to life.
