In this graphic novel, author interprets the things he wants to tell the readers by different colors.
He makes the liquid look like fireworks by coloring it "abnormally".
The whole book was in very dark colors such as black, dark blue and grey. The only thing that stands out is the fire.
I really like how the author expresses his thoughts through the color, not just the words. I completely agree with your interpretation of the liquid looking like fireworks. I think the book was so dark because if was such a dark time but like you say, the fire stands out the most because he wants the fire to be the dominant element in the book.
ReplyDeleteI agree Sheri and Paige i like the expressions on colors. The darkness represented that how different it was to our "normal" world where books are encouraged and fire fighters are putting out fires not setting them. So the darkness represented how rough that time was.
