Waiting room

Imaginary little girl combined with the real waiting room –drawn while waiting in radiology for a friend who’s daughter has spina bifida.  Painted and little girl drawn later in the Spina Bifida clinic while waiting some more.

Funny story about this one.  While waiting in the clinic for several hours children and parents came and went.  Finally, after reading for some time I decided to work on this a bit more.  As I got out my watercolors the sweetest little girl, about 3 years old, came over and started watching me work.  She then ran back to her mom on the other side of the room and told her there was a “painter”.  The mom shushed her and said no, I was just wearing a beret.  She isisted and finally they came over together, her mom tickled pink that I really was an artist and really was working and that I was allowing her sweet little daughter to watch and ask questions while I worked.
