Paint Party Friday & Art Journal Journey

It's Friday!
Finally getting back into the swing of things again and being creative.
February is always a kick start month for my art for the year. I'm once again doing 
This is the 4th year of this challenge and there are some amazing artist over there :) 
I've managed to keep up this year but have only painted one face and that is the one I will share today. 
As usual I forgot the starting photo of just the sketch .
This is my youngest granddaughter who just happens to have a birthday this month.




The inspiration photo is from this... a day when she and her sister were playing dress up in period costumes ,
