The pantone color of the new year is... Living coral. If you are an artist in any form I suggest that you follow the link and let this influence your art. Many are very much about the pantone colors for what they buy.  There are a wide variety of color style ideas.

Here is a set I put together for  the pantone color(s) of the year.

Where will these colors take you this year? As an artist it can take you to the canvas, in your environment,... or in fashion they can be that amazing balance of yin and yang in a gentle softness.
I find myself being drawn in deep to the fashion part and i feel rather drawn to the painting side of things now too. I told myself for a long while that I was not a good painter. hrmmm well that is changing... sooooooo This year calls to me in new and vastly different ways. Including my writing which I am doing like a manic. Hey I am an 80's gal so it fits right?  Hehehehehe!
My darlings get your art on whatever way it calls to you!!!

The Pantone color of the year has been announced in a whole new and unique way. For the first time two colors make up the "color" of the year; rose quartz and serenity. a fabulous yin yang effect for the year that emanates the feel of gentleness, romance, nature, and softness.
a hay day for artists in their creating. Happy creating!!!! and for all in the vast ways to us these lovely colors.
