About Us
Who We Are
At Color Theory Painting, we’re more than just painters — we’re home transformation specialists. Based in Wisconsin, we’re a newly established business (founded in 2025) with a sharp eye for detail, a passion for quality, and a mission to elevate the look of every home we touch.
Our Story
Color Theory Painting was born from a simple idea: exterior painting doesn’t have to be stressful — and it should never be average. After two years of successfully running an exterior painting business through College Works Painting, our founder, Orion, launched Color Theory Painting to bring a fresh, client-focused approach to the industry.

A System That Works
01
The Color Theory Consultation
“You pick the colors, and we’ll paint three free test samples around your house to help you find the perfect match!”
02
The Wash
This is what sets the standard for our quality of work! We pressure wash or hose wash all surfaces at least 48 hours before the start of the project to ensure a clean and long-lasting finish.
03
Preperation
Proper prep work ensures the paint bonds correctly, looks flawless, and stands up to Wisconsin’s weather. We have processes in place to ensure longevity and proper protection for your home, including taping off and protecting all areas that you do not want painted!
04
The Transformation
Once the surface is properly prepared, the real magic begins. We carefully apply premium-quality paints with expert techniques to create a stunning, even finish. The transformation isn’t just about a new coat of paint—it’s about giving your home renewed beauty, protection, and pride.
05
The Reveal
Before we consider a project complete, we walk the property with you to ensure every aspect of the project is up to our standards and yours! Watching your vision come to life and seeing your pride in the result is why we do what we do. This isn’t just a new paint job — it’s a new beginning for your home.
06
Clean-Up
A great paint job isn’t finished until everything is spotless. After painting, the Color Theory Painting team carefully removes all equipment, tape, and coverings, and ensures your property looks just as clean as we found it — only better. We handle all debris and materials, leaving you with nothing but a beautifully refreshed home. Our goal is a seamless experience from start to finish, with no mess left behind.
