Penguin Place Colour Challenge

 This week for my regular #sketchintuesday project, I combined the sketch (random internet search) with a colour combination challenge.  The colours were a bit all over the place so not something I would normally do but it turned out pretty good in the end.  The colour challenge was for Inspire.Create.Challenge,#101 I have participated in their challenges a few times.  Always nice to stretch your comfort level and try something new.
