This was in honor of my aunt. She passed away a few years ago on Mother's Day (so now it's always kind of a sad day). Her favorite color was red and at her funeral they released hundreds of red balloons. I couldn't go to the funeral so I like to think of this as my red balloon to her.

I just found some lightning footage I shot last year with my dinky digital camera. I brought it into FCP and just put the best shots together. Sorry for the not-so-good quality.

Oil pastels and india ink. :)

The giraffe had been waiting a few months to be inked. I finally obliged him :)
