View the Exhibition

This exhibition is an annual event. “The Healing Power of Color” features a wide variety of art in different styles and mediums. The participating artists are members of our art galleries and artists from our art review series. In addition to the artwork artists share how color inspires them so we may better understand more about them and their creative visions.

The Healing Power of Color

The Powerful Impact of Color: Color affects your behavior, moods, and thoughts.  Your reactions to colors are often deeply personal and rooted in your own experiences. A certain color has the ability to conjure up a profound memory, soothe your frazzled nerves when you feel agitated, motivate and empower you to take action when you are in a state of lethargy, and bring healing energy when you are ailing.

“Color helps to express light — not the physical phenomenon, but the only light that really exists, that in the artist’s brain.” ~ Henri Matisse 

The Importance of Color in Art: Color may be the first quality we notice and respond to when viewing a work of art. It may also be the most important tool artists can use to express their deepest feelings, share their beliefs, convey meaningful messages, and transform viewers intellectually and emotionally.
