“Orange is red brought nearer to humanity by yellow.” – Wassily Kandinsky
I unfortunately did not actively search for orange this time around. With all the snowbound days I feel like we have been spending a lot of time indoors. So this morning when I saw Jennifer’s reminder that today was the day for Orange, I searched my Instagram feed for orange.
When we moved to our new home, the first room I had painted over was our dining room. It used to be navy blue, now, a warm earthy terra cotta. I’m an earthy girl when it comes to wall colors.
I’ve been making a lot of butternut squash soup this winter searching for my favorite recipe. I think I finally found it.
of course, the orange in sunsets this past fall were beautiful over the rolling hills around these parts
dried grass reeds poking out of the snow, I often find abstract inspiration in my environment
ok, well, this is a tin of Indian Yellow, but it looks orange-y

You did a wonderful job of sharing all this gorgeous color! I’ve been living in such a white/grey world so it is much appreciated.
