Yellow Day so far...


Now that I've given a little background information into the book, I thought I'd publish where the book is at so far.
Beginning with the poem...

Yellow Day

Yellow is the sunlight, flooding the room
Yellow is the egg yolk, broken with a spoon

Yellow is the lost, freshly clean sock
…lock?

Yellow are feet in the cold white sand,
Yellow is swinging together, hand in swinging hand

Yellow is a sudden smile, and an awful burst of laughter
Yellow is bananas and custard, and feeling sick after

Yellow is the hot drink that chases away the cold
Yellow is the wall, that marks growing old

Yellow are the daffodils trumpeting through the ground
Yellow is that sock, finally found

Yellow is the sun setting, from red to orange, to pink, to blue
Yellow is the colour of my memories, of you

As you can see, the words are not totally finished, and as you can see from the most up to date page plan below, some of the images are not finalised. However, I am just too impatient, and have started on the imagery already. This may be a huge error on my part, and my next stage is to finalise everything and complete a full mock up of the book, before going any further and making any mistakes.
