The First Face for the 29 Faces Challenge


Merry September!

Today commences my next challenge that I'll be pleased to meet half-way. Know what I mean? Today begins 29 Faces Challenge and I'll be playing along as best as I can. I encourage you to join us, whether you draw or paint on a regular basis, or haven't attempted such a thing since your grammar school days. You know what I say ~ creative expression is vital to our wellness ~ and you'd be hard pressed to find a friendlier, more supportive group with which to play, explore and express!

So this morning, in between making my bean salad and beet salad to take to a friend's today I created my first face for this challenge.

So, yeah. That's what I made today.

Peace.

    Love the angle of her face, looking sideways and across - so unusual and who can blame her attention being captured by that gorgeous red.
