Kringlings love music. Musicians who find a kringling village often never leave.

Here is my finished piece. Michael is singing to the mountains, the deep calling to deep, calling up the magic of the ancient song, that those who have ears to hear can still hear.

I wanted to try my hand at manga, so I came up with a fitting story to tell. It was a fun approach. I drew it traditionally on a 19x24 sheet of paper. Turns out there isn't a scanner large enough for that size in my tiny town so I ended up cutting the original into quarters and piecing it back together in photoshop. But I leaned a lot through the process. and I'm pretty pleased with the outcome.

@naters-calderone Wow, so well done!

[chrisaakins]

@naters-calderone hahaha. I had a chance to really read this. Best idea ever.

Wasn't planning on entering this month as I was traveling recently and had a few commissions to finish. Fortunately one of the subjects was a trumpet player so I decided to do something fun

@naters-calderone Substitute a mandolin for a violin and I've been that kid a thousand times over!

[Larry Whitler]

@gary-wilkinson Love it! The three colors make me think this guy can play chords on a horn.

She who always has a song in her heart will always dance.

Music inspires my little one and she inspires me. If there is a melody anywhere around her little body is moving. I had a neat experience as I painted this one. I decided I would listen to her music as I painted. When one particular song came on, "A Million Dreams", and I stopped painting Avery, I started to make her dance. I've painted her, now how do I make her dance?
