One Man Minstrel :sketch

A talented street musician playing for passerby's pennies. He's got gourd and bead rattles, a quartet of chorus birds [voice changers on their necks, stitched together for convenience and hobbling], whistle, portable lap lute, bells, foot-pump horns, ankle rattles, and I think that's it.

-----
The birds were inspired by the cormorants used by fishermen who tie strings around their necks so they can't swallow the big fish they catch. I love cormorants and that's gotta uncomfortable ;A;

Graphite sketch from today.
