The Waiting Room
It seems that we all wait on occasion, in one way or another. In a doctor's office, a restaurant, on a train or subway platform, the parade of people is rich and diverse. There's usually a one to five minute period for me to draw an individual before one of us has to move along (the train arrived, food has been delivered, etc.). Watching the waiting allows me to be entertained while I myself wait, so that someone else's waiting is my playground. These drawings, originally done in ink or pencil, frequently remain untouched. Often, though, I paint the drawings with watercolors, or scan and color them on a computer (indicated by '+Color') Again, these drawings represent my own style of 'plein air' or 'prima facie,' 'in situ', observing my subjects directly in their original place.
