Full of smiles

I really like this photo of my father in law Gary or Gk as he is known and his partner Nettie. It was taken at a family wedding recently and shows Netties lovely smile. 
I have used my new stencils with gesso to give the effects in the corners and then coloured them with inks .
I used the colours in the colour wheel at Kreative Koncepts # 25 colour challenge as inspiration.

PS Please dont think I have over coloured the photo ...Nettie is that suntanned!

Let me know what you think!
