Oslo Suprise
Arrived in Oslo, jet-lagged, sweaty and lacking sleep, but happy. The weather is absolutely beautiful. I drew this woman sitting by the several fountains in the center of the city.
Then, as I headed back to my hotel, taking notice of how, even though there were a lot of people out and about, Oslo is a quiet city. Suddenly, a marching band appeared out of nowhere. I have no idea why, what the occasion is. Maybe you don’t need an occasion for a marching band. It certainly was not what one would expect in the center of Oslo. It was a real treat.
Tomorrow, I will be live-drawing all day for Oslo Freedom Forum, and you can follow my drawings in real time on my Twitter and Instagram. I will post here at some point.
Happy Monday!
Perhaps they were playing to welcome you to Oslo.
Love it! I’m in Denmark next month and can’t wait. I’ve found Nordic countries to a fresh break from ... America ... never need an excuse to make music!! I have plans to busk with a couple other harmonica players on the streets of Viborg ... we’re gonna do it without asking first... feels naughty, Danes are all about the rules 😁😁😁🇩🇰🇩🇰
