This collection for the Colorist Catalog Spring 2019 features the classic and nostalgic colors of Northern New York.

Spring is a pause

In upstate New York, spring the landscape can have this special meaning. Seeing the newness after winter is more rewarding each new year.

And Northern New York spring’s colors aren’t trend‑seeking—they’re timeless, thick with nostalgia. This way there is a feel of looking back to childhood back‑road ramblings and hometown memories.

Here the Colorist Catalog Spring 2019 features the colors of these long awaited months.

The colors of spring are built upon the soft brown winter‑worn trees, bedrocks of dried leaves mulched back into the earth by rainy April days.

Pockets of intense purple‑violets, reds, and lilacs—coat the landscape exhaling an elegant excitement. Then there are those hits of intense yellow sun banks cracking through the budding and blooming horizon.

So take a classic approach to a North New York spring—Violet cassis macarons, maple walnut butter cream, and lemon bar macarons.
