The Red Balloon in The City

This is a combination of two pictures on I made in my sketchbook (the red balloon) and one I thought up as I was redrawing the first on my computer with my tablet. I thought it was a sad picture at first but then when i but it on the internet my friends told me that it was more like the balloon was leaving for better things. Instead of the city loosing its color. Also I was listening to 99 red balloons when I drew the first part of this picture. Its cool how the things we hear and see affect what we do even after we are done "growing" (in quotes cause are we ever really done growing?)
