Pictured here is a combination of people and places I have seen on various trips across America. The background is Los Angeles' Art Deco railway station, much admired by me when we had a stopover there between trains. Twins fascinate me and I had seen these two watching an outdoor performance on a pier in San Francisco. They fitted nicely in the pair of seats. I had drawn the lady with the outstanding figure on our first visit to the States, when a long wait at Miami Airport was enlivened considerably by her arrival. Believe me, I have not been able to do her justice, and a ripple of excitement went through the waiting room as she entered. I've painted her as I last saw her, proudly striding towards her boy-friend, waiting to meet her in.New Orleans.
