My tribute to John Lennon

I was feeling really down today. I've been stressed out for the past few weeks to my near-breaking point; sometimes i think that there's nothing worse than not having guilt-free free time.

ANYWAY...After a good cry, I went to cheer myself up with some beatles to play while I worked, and I saw the tributes to John Lennon for his birth
day on youtube. This started off as a doodle on the side while I worked and those videos played...and then I just kept going.

Done mostly without undersketch, so that's why some of the lines are wonky, but it's like... John was an artist too, and he did inky line drawings and I guess that's why I killed what was left of my pens on this. XD Oh well.

Happy 70th birthday, John Lennon. Thanks for the years of inspiration.

On the off-chance someone gets a print of this, all profits go to the "Roadtrip to Jake" fund. Muchos Gracias!

What a beautiful tribute. Very well done and kinda reminiscent of his own work as well as the Peter Max background that recalls Yellow Submarine. Second the motion to see this colored.
