I Love A Parade

His was the gift of music and an uninhibited personality.

 

I’d say he marches to the beat of just one drum, but he’s only got a horn. But WHAT a horn!

 

If you live here in the States, I hope you are able to get out there to celebrate Independence Day today by going to a parade! Even if that means it’s a one-man horn player marching down the street to his own tune.

And yes, I mean today. When the 4th falls on a Sunday, the holiday is generally recognized in most areas on the Monday after.

I really liked how this one turned out. It’s a traditionally inked drawing from my sketchbook that was colored in Photoshop. Below are a few close-ups so you can enjoy some of the texture of the piece!
