Illustration Friday: Blue

On Monday we were installing Russ's newest sculpture at the Washington University School of Medicine, so I haven't had much time to post this week. But I wanted to get my Illustration Friday drawing done for Blue.

It was a little inspired by the below freezing weather we've had lately, but also a bit of Elvis's song Blue Christmas....

I'll have a Blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me

And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas

I was also thinking about calling the drawing "No Two Flakes are Alike."
