The Color Orange

orange tree 72

Orange is showing up a lot for me the last couple of months and I like to think that it is due to the excitement of what is coming in 2018. It represents creative energy and frankly I love the color! It decorates my studio with its enthusiastic character and just makes me smile. As I researched it online, this is what was said about orange – Orange combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow. It is associated with joy, sunshine, and the tropics. Orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation. A lot of encouraging words for sure and I truly believe orange is showing up to keep me fascinated with the new year and what it holds for me. This past year has been about taking time off of work and just moving deep inside to discover what I really want, need and to explore what offerings will move me in the direction I want my business to go. I want to paint! I want to help other creatives find what moves them! I want to be present, extremely present to what my artistic heart and soul are discovering every single day! This is what orange looks like to me, a place to find myself and the courage to head in the direction of what’s next. What color speaks to you? I would love to know…

  1. Kelly, I too have been suddenly drawn to Orange. In the past it has been one of my less favorite colors. I am wondering where this came from. This past year has had some major life events that were difficult but I have dealt with them because I had too. Now things are slowly getting back to normal and all of a sudden I am all about Orange! Reading your post may give me some clues from what you said Orange is associated with and what it represents. Thanks for giving me some insight into my new Orange “fetish”!
