Nap Time at San Pedro Sula, Honduras
20" x 20" Original oil on canvas
On one of my mother's trips to visit my sister in Honduras, she saw this lady selling fruits at a street corner. There was another lady on the opposite corner across the street also selling. My mother noticed them arguing with each other. She went up to them and asked if she could take a photograph of each one. They were a bit surprised and said no one had ever taken a photo of them before. Then she promised to give them a copy and they were delighted. This lady was a bit tired and also older than her competitor.
Of course I chose to paint the two ladies, and enjoyed painting their dresses, their facial expressions, and the street scenes.
