Like a mountain peaks' ridgeline' post-sunset, the deep indigo hue of Dusk mimics the fleeting wonder of nature that is early nightfall.
Often found flitting amongst the pines, the mountain Bluebirds of the Pacific Northwest are proof that Mother Nature has an eye for color. A brilliant blue shade, Mountain Bluebird is an elevated, almost tropical shade of cyan.
Riverbend is a dark and brooding blue-green hue, similar to the colors found in the cold depths of a swiftly flowing river.
Mimicking the pristine clarity of the nightsky on a cold winter's night, Stargazing's serene slate blue color shines through from the darkest cosmic depths.
A rich medium green with yellow undertones, Willow rivals the lush verdant shade of its namesake, often found nestled along the banks of meandering rivers and hidden gullies.
Wildfire provides an energetic shock of red to the High Desert landscape. A force to be reckoned with, this magma-like hue is truly striking when used as a stand alone color.
Enjoy the wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest's native flowers year round with Lupine. A radiant mid-range purple, this amethyst shade bridges the gap between a refined jewel tone and a field of fanciful wildflowers.
Forge is a dense dark grey with blue undertones, similar in appearance to the mineral-rich deposits of Josephinite found along eastern Oregon river channels.
Inspired by the vast fields of igneous rock found throughout the high desert region, Lava Fields is a dark obsidian shade that resembles ancient layers of basalt.
A soft pewter color with brown undertones, Quail is a balanced medium grey well suited for using in monochromatic gradients or as a neutral contrast color in colorwork garments.
Cottonwood is a rich ivory shade with warm undertones, much like the spent pillowy drifts of the Populus tree that can be found floating along a late spring breeze.
