Illustration Friday : Red
When I first moved to England I was 5 years old.
There were lots of things that amazed me. but one thing that is really vivid in my mind is the shock of discovering that the sun is yellow, and not RED, in children's pictures over here.
I guess it is because of the Japanese national flag that the sun is associated with the colour red in the Land of the rising Sun.
I did try to persuade my new friends that the sun should be red in our pictures, but I was quickly defeated. All it took was for them to point at the sky... well really, it's more white than yellow, anyway!
