Life in Color - via National Geographic

RED

On these bleak winter days in the Northeast, images rich in the 

color red can certainly certainly help with the lack of color during 
these grey and white days of winter.

Color at the State of the Union address

 

 

This dress has gotten a lot of press since the address last week. "Raisin" "plum" "red-violet" and even "purple" are all terms used to describe this color (actually there are two colors here if you look carefully).  The color appears different if you look at many of the photos posted online so really the only way to decide the actual color is to see it in person (which of course, isn't possible). 

Here are two colors which may or may not be close (via paint swatches online from Murobond - see post below)...

Colour in Australia

The colors found in the new paint line I learned about recently are only available in Australia - too bad. Here is a sample of just the first page of their beautiful palette.  Check it out at Murobond.

My favorite color is probably Arnhem, but those who know me already know that since it is similar to the color of my office and my dining room.
