Artists Celebrate the Color Orange

Art, Statements and Facts About the Color Orange

When it comes to the healing power of color we know that a certain color has the ability to soothe your frazzled nerves, empower you to take action, and also to bring healing energy when you need it. As Wassily Kandinsky proclaimed, “Color hides a power still unknown but real, which acts on every part of the human body.” In this presentation, several of The Healing Power of ART & ARTISTS online gallery artist members and Special Friends celebrate the color orange in a variety of sizes, subjects, styles and mediums.

This is one in a series of online exhibitions that spotlight the healing power of color by artist members, artists from our art review series  and more art from this website.

Orange is A Happy, Energetic and Eye-Catching Color

Peter states, “Early morning twilight dazzles my senses reminding of the reoccurring blessings each new day can bring. In this memory I was up early on my sailboat, in a safe harbour, sipping a hot beverage enjoying the full color drama of the new day unfolding.”

Sandra explains, “For the past ten years, I have been photographing the yearly Tulip Festival in Albany, NY. I always feel like a kid in a candy-store when surrounded by this wonderland of color. The red-orange tulips are my favorites, and I have photographed them every year. In this photograph, they provide an exciting background for dark violet tulips with their bright green stems. This burst of color is thrilling to me.”

Facts About the Color Orange
The color orange is strongly associated with tropical landscapes and summer, yet it is the color of harvest and fall. The fall foliage turns to a muted orange to let us know of the change in the seasons.

Orange stimulates appetite. It can trigger hunger in its reddish hues, and it is often used in kitchen decor and restaurants for that reason.

Consider bringing some art with the color orange into your life!

    I love Renee Phillips and all she does for Artists to include them in her news and shows. I’m concerned because although I was included in the fall show, I’ve looked for but can’t find Call for Artists for the 2024 “ about “ Her” show or the “annual Color show. Am I missing something ? Are you doing these exhibitions this year? I have some new paintings and would like to continuing entering shows. I’ve even don orange in paintings for this year. Thanks.
