     Coloring with the girls I babysit I came up with this:
      Nothing fancy. Just doodling with a set of cheap crayons. But for some reason I felt like I wanted to play around with it once I got home. I sprayed the background in green. I may have slightly over sprayed. I'm still learning how to use those mists.
     After it dried I went over with more flowers using 2 different shades of blue craft paint and a hot pink tempera. Then I outlined the flowers with various markers, touched up the lips with a Letraset aquamarker and outlined the eyes with a black brush tip Sharpie. I also went over the hair with craft paint.
    Not sure if I like it. Not sure if it is done. But I had a chance to explore different materials, to let go of the world for a little bit while I played around with color. So for now, I'll put her away somewhere safe. If nothing else I can pull it out in a few years and marvel at how far I've come. Hopefully.
