Color Pride Painting is a unique form of self-expression that empowers individuals to communicate their identities and experiences through vibrant rainbow hues. Each brush stroke tells a story, and the result is a powerful canvas that evokes joy, unity, and acceptance.
June is Pride Month, and we’ve all seen the rainbow-striped flags at Pride events, parades, community centers, on people’s homes, and even on crosswalks around the country. These sociopolitical symbols of community membership, unity and visibility have evolved in recent years to promote more inclusivity for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and two-spirit (LGBTQIA2-S) communities.

Behind the Scenes: The Story of Color Pride Painting and Their Commitment to Quality
The original rainbow flag was designed by Gilbert Baker in 1978 to celebrate members of the LGBT political movement and to call for equality. Baker assigned a specific meaning to each stripe of the flag: pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for magic and serenity, and indigo for spirit. In 1979, the pink and turquoise stripes were dropped due to fabric shortage and legibility concerns, and the current six-color rainbow flag emerged.
In 2018, nonbinary artist and designer Daniel Quasar (who uses xe/xyr pronouns) developed the Progress Pride flag, which adds black and brown stripes to the Philadelphia and Seattle pride flags to recognize and uplift LGBTQIA2-S communities of color. The arrow on the flag points to the right to highlight that progress still needs to be made toward inclusiveness for all.
