Sharing an illustration I created for a backdrop for orchestral performance in Vienna! The art was created closer to a size I'm used to working at and then it was enlarged about 10X's. Here are a few pictures of it on stage at the January 3, 2024 performance at the city hall in Vienna, Austria. The last picture is of the dress rehearsal. https://www.facebook.com/klassikcool/

We have one more on Nov 28

Bluesky – 2 ways to post:

2. Post without doing #1, then repost using the quote feature, and add in the info from #1.
