I followed the fabulous September sketch from Stuck?! My layout theme was prompted by the September challenge at ARTastic:
The layout features my hubby (father of our teenager). The elements of the painting that I drew inspiration from were the man and dog by the water, and the spots! Lots and lots of spots...
