Isolation Series: Picking a Tune

"Picking a Tune"
11x14 marker and ink on paper

My drawing today comes courtesy of a friend. While visiting outdoors on the weekend, we discussed the joy of music, for ourselves and in sharing with others. It is no surprise a guitarist emerged from the lines he left behind. The magic of a good tune evokes so many responses: it inspires, consoles, energizes, dispels bad moods, helps us cry, sets toes to tapping, and voices to humming and singing along. In spite of isolation and physical distancing music can be listened to and shared in the most creative ways.
