Yellow Crinoid Feather Star Against Red Fan Coral // Papua New Guinea

Every year, the PANTONE® Color Institute selects the "color of the year". Their experts search the globe all year for new influences, which include everything from politics to technology, to social media, movies and TV, popular materials and textures in fashion and decor, and anything else that garners big attention.

In 2019, the winning color was 16-1546 Living Coral, featured in this collection of canvas art prints. Each one features a glimpse under the ocean, showing where this color gets its namesake.

In PANTONE's own words, "Living Coral embraces us with warmth and nourishment to provide comfort and buoyancy in our continually shifting environment. In reaction to the onslaught of digital technology and social media increasingly embedding into daily life, we are seeking authentic and immersive experiences that enable connection and intimacy.

Sociable and spirited, the engaging nature of PANTONE® 16-1546 Living Coral welcomes and encourages lighthearted activity...it's a nurturing color that appears in our natural surroundings and at the same time, displays a lively presence within social media".
