Illustration Sunday: Fire In The Sky

This weekend Torontonians celebrate Victoria Day the only way we know how—by blowin' shit up! This is the first holiday of the year for which the public may legally purchase and light fireworks, Canada Day being the other. If you're not brave enough to light your own fireworks, there are several displays scheduled for the weekend.

I find it insulting that the Canadian nanny state doesn't think the citizenry is mature enough to be trusted with fireworks year round.
I've been trying to figure out how you did this... did you invert a watercolour picture? It's pretty!
That's exactly what I did, Rosemary. Thanks!
