Angie's (ohmypapers!) Free for All challenge yesterday was to create big autumn coloured flowers.
This fun Grazia Salvo image has the girl holding a big basket of flowers.....I did a terrible job at the flowers, but instead of chucking it out, I kept it so I could practice colouring eyes.
Five minutes later she looked even worse so I put it in my recycle stash.
Enter Angie's inspiration challenge....The minute I saw that happy pineapple, I knew how I could salvage this.
I lopped off the contents of the basket, gave her a pair of sunnies and coloured her hair aqua. Job done.
Thank you for looking and I hope something inspires you to get inky soon.

Great save on your twice rejected artwork - the reflection in the shades is amazingly realistic! Love the totally funky aqua hair and the inspiration it came from.

Oh, to be young, beautiful and to have the confidence to wear tourquois hair. She is just fabulous. She should be drinking wine by the pool at a fancy hotel with all the handsome men trying to get her attention.
So true to your inspiration! I love it! I am so glad you revived her! She makes me smile. Love the color of her hair, my favorite color. I get my nails done in that color, but don’t have the nerve to do my hair in that color! LOL
