Twelvty-Twelve: Yellow-Orange
The Gorgeous Golden Glow of Yellow-Orange, Ochres, Ginger, Saffron & Spice
“All that glitters is not gold.”
~ Shakespeare
All through 2017 I’ve been exploring the subject of color in a year long visual adventure: one color each month. Over the last 12 days of the year I’ve shared a little insight into what I made through the year, and today we reach the end of the journey, the circle is complete.
Each month I continued adding more single color doodles and collaged ephemera to the pages to this art journal, these are the closing pages.
If you missed the previous posts, you can catch up here: Starting out in Yellow, then Yellow-Green, Green, Blue-Green, Blue and Blue-Violet, next Violet, then Red-Violet, Red then Red-Orange and finally Orange. Now we’ve arrived full circle! Yikes what a trip!!
Wishing you a fabulously colorful new year! Much love to you X

TWELVTY is adventure you can join too.
By exploring the color wheel and each of the 12 colors, I share my creative process plus a feast of resources about color I’ve collected for you.
You’ll learn about the history of how color has been used, not just by artists, but as part of different cultures around the world. You’ll discover the meanings linked to the colors, how there are connections through the ages and around the world.
There are even playlists of songs and music relating to each of the colors! (I said it was thorough, right?)
In 2018 I’m introducing a new element to TWELVTY – a shared creative project that we’ll work on together as we traverse the color wheel.
Registration for TWELVTY 2018 is open now!
