Sunday Sketches, Summer of Color - Candy Apple Red and Yellow

This is an art greeting card (5 1/2"h x 4 1/4"w) done in acrylic and pencil.  The colour theme at Summer of Color is 'candy apple red and yellow'.  I like the bold colour combinations in fashion for this summer season.

This photo from a sales flyer was my inspiration:

You sure used the inspiration piece to your advantage, because these colors fit nicely with the SOC challenge this week. Stunning.

Christine, this sketch is wonderful. I love how you used the SOC challenge to create such a great dress. I like the blue belt with it.

PS So glad the headache went away. I hope you had a great day!
