APPart – Mobile Art – Color of the Day with Pantone – Daily Challenge! – TheAppWhisperer
We are delighted to launch a new segment to our very popular Mobile Art – APPart column here at TheAppWhisperer, edited by Bobbi McMurry.
We would like to inspire all mobile artists to create one image a day using the selected colour of Pantone’s ‘Color of the Day’ – see here (we will announce the colour each day). As well a ‘Color of the Day’, Pantone also link that colour with adjectives and/or nouns, for example, today’s ‘Color of the Day’ is shade Violet (16-3320) and the accompanying descriptives are ‘trendsetter, seductive and magnetic’. So, we would like to see your creations using the colour Violet in combination with those words, if possible. It’s a challenge after all!
Once you have created your image, please post it to Instagram with the following hashtag #taw_appart_coloroftheday (please don’t forget the underscores). We will view each uploaded image a day and select a winning creation and this will be published to our main website here as well as being featured throughout our vast social media channels.
Let’s see what you wonderful artists can create!

Hi Heather, please create your image and publish it to Instagram – then include the hashtag #taw_appart_coloroftheday – we’ll be able to search for that hashtag and view your images there, thank you.

Where do you get the color?? Is there a Pantone App or summ ?
Joanne Carter
Hi Tracy, it doesn’t have to match precisely, just as close as you can get it.
