Today, I spent my whole session talking. We didn't really do any art except look at my journal play with some plasticine stuff. Somehow we got hung up on Becca and how I would like to apologize to her. We started a plan. She won't have anything to do with me and I avoid her at school. Dr. E suggested I write a letter to her. One that I could decide whether or not to send. I liked that idea because it took pressure off having to face her in person. She gave me some plasticine and asked me to make two figures - me and Becca. While I was making them, I got an idea. I would send her a present with a letter.
On the way home from school, I stopped at Shelmerdine's greenhouse. I sat and had a coke and drew a hanging basket and pretty yellow orchid. As I was drawing the orchid, I noticed there were little pink ballet dancer shapes in each blossom. It was the perfect gift for Becca since her whole world is ballet. But it was $30. Maybe Inga or Jocelyn could lend me the cash. They know I'll be looking for a summer job next month and I'm good for it.
First I did the drawing in the restaurant, then took it home and when over it with a Pentel brush pen and gouache.
While I was sitting in the restaurant, I overheard an old lady say to her friend, "Being around flowers just makes me happy". I kinda agreed.
