Sunday Sketches

I could not resist the urge to paint the Peruvian children's faces as they gathered to have their picture taken the day we visited the mountain school. I love the faces as well as the colors and designs of the textiles.

I am thinking of creating a painting on a larger scale in oils.....

This one is for the Sketchbook Project 2012.....

    This is amazing, Joanne. I love the detail and bright colours. Feels so alive and you captured the emotion in the photo so well! :) Hugs

    A fabulous sketch! It would make a great painting - even more due to the wonderful memories involved.
