Sherwin Williams Color of the Year

This Ana Inciardi mini print depicts a paint can rendered in a loose, hand-drawn style, its label featuring the iconic Sherwin-Williams logo on a bold blue background. The familiar "Cover the Earth" globe, shown with red paint pouring over it, sits prominently on the label alongside the brand name in white lettering. Paint drips and smears appear around the rim of the can, suggesting a can that has been well used. The overall palette is muted and warm, with the blue label providing the sharpest color contrast against the cream and brown tones of the can itself. A handwritten caption at the bottom reads "Sherwin-Williams Color of the Year," with the initials "ANA INC" marked in the lower right corner. Sherwin-Williams is one of the largest paint manufacturers in the United States, founded in Cleveland, Ohio in 1866. The company's annual Color of the Year announcement has become a widely followed event in interior design and home decor culture. Collectors are drawn to this print for its dry, understated humor, taking a familiar commercial object and presenting it as a kind of deadpan still life. The subject sits comfortably within Inciardi's broader print series of consumer goods, signage, and everyday objects, and it pairs naturally with her other prints featuring branded or commercial imagery. The handmade quality of the linework gives the piece a charm that feels personal rather than mechanical, which is consistent throughout her catalog and a quality collectors frequently cite when building focused groupings of her work.
