FOR NICOLAI LARSEN
(October 9, 1952 – April 24, 2025)

Nicolai, my husband, partner, best friend, and a talented and prolific artist, ended his journey on this earth on Thursday, April 24.

It was a conscious decision after a battle with double pneumonia and a month-long hospital stay. True to his character, he approached this final step with courage and humor. He leaves behind a strong family in awe of his bravery and the love he shared with us.

For more about Nicolai's art, visit the following:

> Chico Open Studios Art Tour - this is Nicolai's page with recent art pieces.

> www.NicolaiLarsen.com showing some of the commissioned works and murals he created over his long career as a professional artist.

January 2025
> C-Lon Colors of the Year

The Color of the Year? Mocha Mousse by Pantone or Future Dusk by Coloro... Why are these colors important? Many items are already out this year in these colors or will be out soon. I matched Mocha Mousee with MB-Medium Brown, BLS-Blush, BR-Brown, and CHO-Chocolate. For Future Dusk, I went with PI-Persan Indigo, HYA-Hyacinth, and PKL-Periwinkle.

Check the Pantone Color Palettes
In addition to releasing the Color of the year, Moch Mousse, Pantone also created color palletes.

I matched Relaxed Elegance with OY-Oyster, BLS-Blush, S-Sable, BR-Brown, and L-Latte, NT-Nutmeg, MB-Medium Brown, CHO-Chocolate.
