Mellow Yellow

The weather tells us it's spring and if you want to be assured, you should visit the Mellow Yellow exhibit at the King museum.
As you walk in the door you will be transported to sunset beaches and gently rolling waves. Footprints along the shore lead you to a restful Muskoka chair and a glass of wine.
In another room, bright tulips and sunflowers shout summer. Fluffy dandelions wave gently in a field of grasses. Meadows of wheat call out for a picnic lunch.Summer is definitely in the air.
A young girl visiting the exhibit decides to try her hand at re-creating a sunset beach. She gleefully mixes gobs of yellow and orange and smears the result generously on to the paper. She adds a lake of purple and blue at the bottom and seems pleased with the result. She plans to return another day to try another summer sketch.
