Yellow seems to creep into every picture even when I don’t focus on it.  I looked for a folder that might show a lot of yellow where one might not expect it.  I first opened “Market Research.”  In this photo trip, I explored what sold books.  Compare the picture with more yellow.  What do you think?

I actually could not find a bookcase with NO yellow.  Yellow makes the other colors pop.  Which book in the next bookcase draws your attention?  Which ones would you choose to read looking at the cover?  What about if you just looked at the spine?

Yellow needs another color to offset it, but a bit of yellow goes a long way, wouldn’t you say?  The book I remember reading from this entire post – 9 months later is The Dark.

    Cover illustrations draw me in. But I’m still a fan of red. My eye naturally heads toward red. That said, I really like the dark colors with a single focal point on the bookshelves you’ve shown. Have you seen the picture book called “Flashlight”? It’s really wonderful. And it has no words.

      I think I may have read it that day, but that was 9 months ago, and ….. sounds like one I could read again pretty quickly! 🙂

    That’s worth remembering if I ever manage to get a picture book published.

    The yellow certainly does make it pop, Marsha! 😉

    The Dark really stands out for me.

      Merry Christmas, my friend. I haven’t been writing as much since I’ve been working on my book. I’m kind of lost now that it’s done, but I used up all my internet data, and so I’m up between 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m to blog with free internet. 😦

    ‘Extra Yarn’ sounds intriguing, and I love the cover art. 🙂
