Color is the most obvious element of a garden and an essential tool in the creation of a pleasing landscape. Expanding our ability to recognize the generous multiplicity of color informs our creativity across a variety of disciplines, in and out of the garden—color has the power to move us. Lorene Edwards Forkner is an author and speaker whose work centers on exploring the wonders of the natural world. In this inspiring lecture Lorene will explore the nature of color, perception, distinguishing nuance, and introduce the mindful benefits of using color to sustain concentration and focus.
Lorene is a warm and engaging speaker who uses imagery and language to tell garden/life stories that inspire and inform. She writes a weekly gardening column for Pacific NW Magazine in The Seattle Times. Her latest book, Color In and Out of the Garden (Abrams, 2022) will be for sale at our lecture.
