Description
I recently received an announcement about the Pantone Color Institute’s chosen color of the year for 2023: Viva Magenta 18-1750. When I saw the word “Viva,” I thought the Institute was paying tribute to VIVA Anderson, the highly-regarded celebrated artist many know from Fine Art America.com. Then I visited Pantone Color Institute’s website for the full story and discovered it was using “Viva” more in the sense of exclaiming excitement or declaring something as vivacious.
I then decided that parts of their announcement fit very well my experience of art by VIVA Anderson. For example, the following statements in reference to the color says it: “…revels in pure joy, encouraging experimentation and self-expression without restraint, an electrifying, and a boundaryless shade that is manifesting as a stand-out statement. PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta welcomes anyone and everyone with the same verve for life and rebellious spirit. It is a color that is audacious, full of wit and inclusive of all.” (Leatrice Eiseman, Exec. Director, Pantone Color Institute).
Inspired by the announcement, I revisited a canvas I had been experimenting with off and on for quite some time. Everything seemed to fall in place this time around. Once done, it seemed only natural to dedicate VIVA MAGENTA SKIES WITH RUBY RED APPLE HEART to VIVA Anderson, whose art collections have inspired a number of my own attempted creations.
In completing this artwork, I’ve incorporated mixed media elements from Silk-Featherbrush Artstyle, digital photography, digital painting, a repeating heart motif, and neo color-fusions of swirling gold and bronze. I can’t say with certainty how close I’ve come to the precise shade of PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta as described in Institute’s statement, “Welcome to the Magentaverse,” but I’m enjoying exploring the possibilities presented.
