One Little Tourist

Venice Pier
8" x 10"

Cloudy but pleasant painting near Sharkey's with two other artists.  We really entertained the tourists!  "How much is that painting?" a little girl asked my friend.  "Well, I usually sell them for a hundred," she answered.  "I only have fifty dollars," the girl said.  "Could we make a deal?"  My friend said she could have it for twenty, so the girl ran off to ask her grandmother.  When I was packing to leave, my friend was waiting for the girl to return.  She planned on giving her the painting and saying she could mail the money someday.  Smart bargaining sense for a six year old!
