My nephew stood waiting for my brother to play pickleball. I was intrigued by my nephew’s blend of polite deference and impatience and how it showed in his posture as he leaned onto the patio chair. I snapped a photo and used it as a reference for this gouache sketch.

You’ve caught that gesture perfectly, Sarah! Love your painting style.

Thank you Janet, it was a poignant moment, watching him wait. It symbolized so much about the dance we do as we grow.
