cool little exploration into colour by practitioner 

Kristin Texeira

"planets + their corresponding plants + their corresponding colors"

Kristin's swatch card selection

Scribblings:

• *ANOVA COLOUR LOVA* WOOOOO! :) - practice super synergises with mine!
• Lovely to see how Kristin Texeira uses the visual and diverse appeal of shape and colour and elevates this work in a variety of interesting way across multiple applications.
• I have been toying with the idea of a postcard pack / selection of smaller pieces for a while now and seeing the response to Kristin’s colour swatch collections and portfolio of work, there is obviously creative appeal and market interest in the subject of colour (she seems to keep running out of stock!), as well as style and tone of work. 
• Kristin appears to have a similar approach to research and investigation into colour as a ‘practitional focus’ - to me and how I have been developing my practice across this course and in particular this module. The colours draw you in, and the story behind them / concept / quote / - as in Kristin’s case the links between planets, colours and plants (all on trend visuals) - keeps the audience interested 
• - as does my overarching concept of "worlds"... i think  
• Artwork wanting to be seen, collected, displayed - gives true happy vibes :) An emotional response :) I hope my work does too!
• Possibly another “mock up - postcard mini-worlds pack” - style/thing to watch out for (and another potential thing to add to the never-ending “to print” list :)
• There is so much happiness in colour. The exploration, history and possibilities with colour makes it lovely to see another practitioner and their work - who is also having a ton of fun and sympathetic to the way colour is used in their practice.
