C# SolidBrush Colour

I'm trying to get it so when I select a colour from the combo box it changes the FillBrush Colour

I have this but it just shows a error:

Code:

SolidBrush FillBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.ComboBox3.Text);

You probably wanted:

Code:

var FillBrush = new SolidBrush(new Color(ComboBox3.Text));

I just changed it to this and it worked:

Code:

SolidBrush FillBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.FromName (ComboBox3.Text));
