It's interesting to note where inspiration comes from sometimes to assist in this challenge. The face of this young girl came from the front page of The Guardian, she is a 17 year old student and has now become the face of the Guardian's campaign to help end the practice of female genital mutilation in Britian.
I was drawn to her very sweet face and the colourful headscarf she was wearing which is far more vibrant and detailed than what I have chosen to draw.
I liked her simple message, she said "I want to help these girls who don't have a voice"
