I love those Haring pictures!
I really enjoyed this, since the painting I am just starting is featuring...yellow!
My fav was the powerful one by William Blake. And I find it fascinating that all but one of these contained black (or a dark equivalent) in it somewhere, as a wonderful contrast to increase the yellow pop. Thanks for another interesting post. :-)
It's one of my favorite Coldplay songs, Tabatha. Loved this gallery of paintings. See you tomorrow for Poetry Friday.
Good point, Loretta! See you tomorrow, Laura.
Tabatha, you always fill our worlds with color! Thank you for the yellow overload today - wonderful collection. (And, see you tomorrow!)
Gorgeous.
Thank you for all the yellow, Tabatha!
Great selections, Tab. Loved the Blake and the Milev, especially.
Interesting thing...when I first saw the Golden Fish by Klee, it looked like a golden eye looking through a dark mask. Klee loved to mess around, so I wonder if he intended that!
P.S. We're currently feeding a yellow neighborhood that we've named Melyn. :-)
