inspired by van gogh

Vincent Van Gogh in Manhattan

































notice the tagline, 'a cut above the rest'. as we walked by, my son made an observation about this company's capitalizing on vincent van gogh's mental illness. I guess the distance of time makes his suffering ok to poke fun at. I just noticed all the yellow and thought, what a perfect shot for today.
today is mellow yellow monday. if you feel so inclined, please visit drowsey monkey's mellow yellow monday meme to check out all things yellow. & don't forget to add your own bit of yellowness too.

I've seen this truck around town. On one hand, it's
kind of amusing; on the other hand, I definitely get Ian's point. Either way, it's a great choice for Mellow Yellow Monday!

Yes, a cross between amusing and creepy, but a super photo for Mellow Yellow.

Very bright child, though I did not know much deep side of the artist Van Gogh but his paintings are sure wonders. Thanks for dropping by my entry. Btw, could I ask a little favor from you? Could you leave me a comment in my contest entry here: http://www.heartscontentofamama.com/2011/05/my-most-memorable-moment-as-a-mother-and-a-contest.html Hoping to win so I could buy new baby clothing for my second baby due this July 27th.
