I love art work.  My house is full of it.  I have art I inherited when my grandmother passed away, some pieces my husband and I have purchased together, and artwork that friends and family have made (my house is a virtual gallery of work by my sister.)  My walls are so full, at this point I have to take things down if I want to add in anything new, and with so many sentimental pieces it is difficult.

I recently stumbled upon the most beautiful prints while browsing shops on Etsy.  I was immediately drawn to their beauty but their theme clinched it and I HAD to have them.  They tell a story and help illustrate a principle I teach to my clients about color theory.  They so beautifully tie into my business and my life.  I ordered them with in a day of finding them and will be soon holding a place of honor over my desk in my office.

        

 The prints have inspired me to tackle something I’ve wanted to do here for some time.  I am going to attempt a series here on my blog about Seasonal Color Flow Theory using these prints as my illustrations.   They do not fully encapsulate what I will be discussing but they definitely get the conversation started.

 Seasons Speak

Does any of this sound like you?

Have you ever noticed that certain colors look absolutely fantastic on you? 

Do you have certain outfits that are guaranteed to bring compliments?

Have you noticed that some colors make you look ill?

Is your wardrobe dominated by a few select colors?

Have you ever purchased anything and brought it home only to discover you have nothing to wear it with?

Is putting together a wardrobe and shopping a chore for you?

Do you have problems packing for trips, and end up packing way too much?

Do you tend to wear a select 25% of your closet and the rest is left untouched?

Are you afraid of color and so stick with neutrals or black?

Have you ever died your hair and suddenly felt like you look older?

Do you have problems making you make up last?

Do you have problems making your make up look natural?

If any of these questions speak to you, tune in to this series, it may just be an eye opener for you!
