Found this tidbit in an AP story:

If color is any guide, we'll be moving into vacation mode in 2010 with the
world awash in tropical turquoise, forecasters say.

Turquoise was selected as the color of 2010 by Pantone, a company that
supplies and tracks color for fashion and home decor, among other
industries. Fashion insiders agreed the color is on the rise.

"Turquoise is universally appealing. It puts everyone in the same state of
mind =3D97 on vacation," says Jane Schoenborn, design director at Lilly
Pulitzer. "Turquoise for us is a really big color. A lot of times it's
transporting, whether you're actually going to a resort destination or not.=
=3D
"


All the best.

Hey clayfolk, turquoise is already my best selling color. I use low fire gl=
=3D
azes and layer cobalt blue, a copper green, and turquoise to create this be=
=3D
st selling color combination.
My challenge I have is coming up with "earthy colors" to suite those who do=

n't like turquoise.
