I didn't start out to make the yellow quest a visual family biography, but it took that direction early on, and I think it's been a more interesting process for me as a result. I love the idea of using color -- and focusing on a single color at that -- to create a story line.
It took me a while to land on images to represent Paul. My tendency is to seek out every detail of what the kids are doing, so it was good to shift my attention back where it belongs. (wink) These photos should do the trick: legal pads, a measuring tape, and a power cord are undeniably some of the most fundamental tools upon which Paul relies EVERY day.
Yellow week has been invigorating creatively. Just plain good for the soul. I definitely want to make something with these photos, and will share that project soon.
Many thanks to Erin for hosting. If you want a jolt of sun-shiney inspiration in your weekend, there is a ton of beauty to be found in the "yellow week" flickr photo pool.
