Yayoi Kusama Polka Dot Pumpkin Coloring Page

Yayoi Kusama is a Japanese artist who has been covering things in polka dots since she was a girl. Her family ran a plant nursery and seed business, and she grew up around fields of flowers and pumpkins.

Pumpkins became one of her favourite things to paint and sculpt, and she has said she loves how plain and humble they are. One of her giant yellow polka dot pumpkins sits at the end of a pier on the island of Naoshima in Japan, and people travel from all over the world to take a picture with it.
