• PARENTAL SUPPORT

  

  ‘Thank you,’ he accepted the coins. Not much, but another sale. The tourist trade was still slow. He started on another picture. Bright red, purple, yellow, swirling together. A shadow cast over the paper. He looked up. She offered him an apologetic smile. ‘That looks wonderful. Can I put it on our living room wall?’ […]
