Love your Emilies! I also LOVE my Amelia hanging in my studio... pushing me onward.
So with good news that an art agent likes a picture book I wrote comes a challenge.
The story is told about the dogs in a rescue, but there is a parallel story happening with the people in the center. So how can I tell the people story in pictures while not interfering with the dog story? LAYERS!!!! Didn't you tell me that.. AGES ago?!!! I know you did. Not only did you tell me, you demonstrate it in your own work. I think I finally got it! (thinking for this I will have all the people in black in white in the back ground, the dog story in color in the foreground and at the end when the right person comes to the main character and bends down... she will be in color too. :)
I don't know who the creative person was who invented that gimmick-but yes, it works, use it! B&W story two eventually meets Full Color story one! Probably the first time we (the general public) saw that device was in the film Wizard of Oz. Your rescue dogs are full color Oz!
