I've began to think about the storyboard and order of illustrations in my book. I have a few double page spreads or illustrations that work together so I am going to try and arrange my book so it flows.
For the cafetiere page, in my original idea of the drawing there was a cafetiere in the middle but considering there is one on the next page, I've decided to leave it just as the hands to keep it simple and I think this is more effective.
Most of my illustrations are coming together and working well as a set but there are still some pages that I'm stuck on which I need to try and figure out. There are a couple of simple observational drawings that I did in my sketchbook which I might replicate for the first and last page, because I don't want to make the picture book too intense and I think they would work well with the more narrative style pages.
In these illustrations I'm trying to depict how much coffee granules I use when I'm making coffee by making it seem really excessive but I don't think it's a very interesting illustration so I'm going to try and think of something.
I'm quite happy with this illustration and I only have two illustrations that properly span two pages so I think I'm going to make this the middle page of my book. It also reflects the caffeine dip in the middle of the day so I think it would work quite well as the middle page.
