As you may have already heard, I mean seriously, it’s yesterday’s news, Pantone picked Rose Quartz and Serenity as their two colors of the year for 2016. It’s the first time they highlighted two hues.

Rose Quartz is exactly the color of rose quartz stones. Rose quartz crystals are beloved for their romantic energy.

Serenity is a light, almost powder baby blue which is a color that soothes. Blue in all of its phases is lovely.

Being one with a piece I paint takes lots of time sometimes and then when the vision is clear, it’s an instant.

Lately, I have been really into coral like pink, hot or pastel. Violet, lavender and just barely there blush is also provocative.

What’s your favorite today? You can change your mind daily you know.
