#MuppetationalMay Day 17: The Beautiful Day Monster!

Thanks to @gilahava704 for the idea for this sketch, and the new set of markers!

Marker drawing of the Beautiful Day Monster, a particularly scary-looking Muppet monster who appeared in bit parts on "The Muppet Show" as well as "Sesame Street." As a pun on his name, I've drawn him dressed as Mr. Rogers as he appeared in every "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" episode opening, sitting on his bench and changing his shoes while singing "It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood." The drawing is signed with my "RV" signature glyph and dated 5-17-25. The black, green, light and dark blue, purple, brown, and red markers used to draw the image rest on the table surrounding the card.
