It was described as beautiful and emotive, making the listener feel like they were looking back at a memory. The illustrations were noted for their softness and internal feeling, and the use of pink was discussed in relation to sweetness, innocence, and color psychology.
First of all, I love this book. I love, love, love this book.
The illustrations for this book are beautiful. When I was looking through it, they're very emotive, and it actually made me think of looking at a memory.
I love the use of the color pink in the book. Is that where you add in like the softness or was it because it was a classic like girl color and she's a dancer? Like what was the choice to use that color?
There were a couple of different reasons. So the main character is a dancer. She loves ballet. Typically when I work on a book, I usually assign a color to a character and try to use that to build a palette. And specifically in this book, we're in her world. So everything is that color pink. I wanted it to be a symbol for sweetness and innocence, but also in color psychology, pink is associated with gentle love and care. And that's everything that I want for this girl.
And so I think like that's when I was looking at this, I was like, this is a book for children. A lot of people that make a lot of money, my therapist included, who make a lot of money trying to show adults how to love and care for themselves. And I'm just, is there like a grown up version of this book? Can we call it like still big? And then there's just a bad bitch at the bottom. Like that's all I'm saying. Just still big, bad bitch at the bottom.
