Leaning Into a Vintage Microphone to Speak

A man leans toward a large old-style microphone on a stand, mouth open as if he is in the middle of a speech. He has short dark hair, a mustache, and a focused expression. One hand is raised with the fingers pinched together, as people do when they stress a point. He wears a suit jacket, a collared shirt, and a striped tie. Behind him, rounded outlines of heads show an audience, and a few straight lines suggest a railing or stage. The microphone has dotted shading on its mesh, which makes a nice detail to color. For Martin Luther King Jr. Day, you could talk with kids about why speeches matter, then let them color the crowd in many different colors.
