Planning Color for your Children's Book
Create a magical, bold story with your illustrations by planning out your colors beforehand! When illustrating “Mother Aspen”, a lyrical, non-fiction children’s book (written by Annette LeBox, illustrated by me, published by Groundwood Books) I wanted to make sure the colors were both memorable and consistent throughout the book. Because the book is about nature, the colors really needed to mirror the bright hues and the variety of shades in the real world. As an illustrator, I can also turn up the volume a bit to really show off the natural world!
