HH4 Challenge - Those ripples...

Lydia chose a wonderful reference picture for our challenge, and I was really looking forward to painting the little girl enjoying the water.
Well - it was quite a challenge, but really good fun.

HH4 Challenge #9 - The Travelling Bluesman

Ok, I don't really know how it happened...

But - I forgot to post the last HH4 Challenge! Well, I didn't really forget but had to postpone. And a bit more... and then it kind of slipped my mind. Oops.

Still, the results of the last challenge are really great. It was my turn again to pick a reference, and I dove into my A-list and chose a picture I had taken three years ago in Scottsdale, Arizona. A travelling musician playing the blues. With a big smile and sparkling eyes.
We started to chat when he took a break and found out that he has a son living just a 15 minutes drive from where I live. In Switzerland! - small world, isn't it?

It's wonderful to see that my friends enjoyed the challenge as much as I did:
