]]>Known as chromotherapy, color therapy is based on the idea that color can help treat physical or mental health. The following artists might just inspire you to take a positive step forward!
Known for her brightly colored paintings, prints, and textiles, Mary Finlayson (aka @painted_mary) will inspire you to take a more maximalist approach to interior design.
Originally from Vancouver, B.C., Finlayson earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Queen’s University, a Graduate Degree in Art Therapy from the Vancouver Art Therapy Institute, as well an Arts Education Degree from the University of British Columbia—so you know her work is well balanced. A spoonful of sugar, others might say.
Shawna X’s art will have your head spinning with colors. Mostly digital, her art also spans spatial and motion spaces, tackling subjects like cultural identity, the modern creative process, and social stereotypes.
But while her subject matter might be loaded, the art itself presents a psychedelic-like reality, filled with bright, neon colors that demand your attention.
Here to empower you, Laci Jordan’s digital art is very much in your face. Focused on powerful women of color, Jordan promotes cultural diversity through her work.
“I’m making the stuff you don’t see by the person you usually don’t see,” she writes on her website. Promoting visibility also means using bold color choices. Trust us, this is just the kind of content your feed craves.

]]>Erika Pochybova, also known as Ebova, has been painting in her own unique style since 2007 and it is like nothing else you’ve ever seen. What makes it unique, above all, is her technique. Each painting is made up of thousands of tiny dots of color that come together to create a beautiful image, usually of something from the natural world.
It’s easy to get lost in those paintings – they have so much to offer. Step back and you’ll find a gorgeous tree with flowers for roots, or a translucent jellyfish deep in the ocean. Step a little closer, and you’ll be mesmerized by the tiny dots of color, each placed meticulously on the fabric to complement every other little dot.
Ebova sais her art is supposed to be seen as metaphorical. It’s not about the horse or the bird she’s painted – it’s about celebrating the beauty of nature and reminding ourselves that we’re surrounded by magic. And with her thousand tiny drops of paint, she achieves that goal easily.

Spirit Animals do not necessarily guide you, but they come to teach you that which you need to learn, in order to know how to meet the challenges of your journey,” the artist wrote on Bored Panda and added that you do not choose your Spirit Animal, it chooses you.

I’m a media-agnostic designer interested in what makes things tick, when and if we’ll make contact with aliens and glitter. When I’m not working, I’m working on an armageddon escape plan, standing up for what’s right, wondering how many cats I could fit into my apartment and wearing out the grooves in my Sade vinyl.”
Masri recently published a new series of works, titled Animals, in which he uses his skills to give dogs, birds, cats, snakes, and other animals a colorful and rainbow look. Check out some of them below.
