Arbolada Rainbow - Yellow







"Tie a yellow ribbon round that old oak tree".....  another reminder of the seventies (thanks Tony)!


True lemon yellow is nice.....in small doses ...... except in nature.  Maybe I'm senstive to yellow because I cannot wear it.  Blonde hair and yellow tinted skin... it just doesn't work for me.  But, as an artist, I appreciate yellow.  


Yellow is the color of the third chakra, known as the solar plexus chakra, which is associated with one's personal power or "self-love".  I find this interesting when one learns the conflicting symbolism of yellow......  happiness, fun, summer, sunshine, hope, intelligence, slow, caution, deceit, cowardice, mourning.   


But, let's get back to beauty & fun..... An acacia tree in bloom (see above), a field of sunflowers or mustard flower, canaries, lemonade, daffodils, pears, corn on the cob, bananas, yellow rain slicker and galoshes, highlighters, Smiley Face, Pac Man, Sponge Bob and Pikachu!   : )
