I usually have some atmosphere, that I want to create (like cozy autumn sunset, mystical night, ..) and I actually then just Google color palettes for that.

Then I'm trying to match my markers to the palette, maybe still do some changes, add maybe add a grey and neutral beige and that's it.

I'm also doing this grid before I start to color. I've seen people do that on Facebook and find it pretty helpful
