A Walk on the Wild Side – Chapter 8
A Walk on the Wild side – Chapter 8
The next morning found both girls sharing a breakfast of ostrich egg omelette whilst discussing the plan for the day.
Tina? Bette asked
Yes Bette? Tina replied.
I thought you were here working on a commission for Peggy Peabody?
I am Tina replied.
But I havent seen you working on anything.No sketches no photos No painting. Bette Said, slightly puzzled.
I dont know, Tina replied, I guess I am just enjoying my time here with you that I really didnt want work to encroach on it, Tina added with a hint of a smile, a slight blush gracing her cheeks.
Bette smiled sweetly back at her.
Were friends right? Asked Bette becoming serious for a moment
Of course! replied Tina curiously
So can I ask you a question? Continued Bette
Sure replied Tina
Bette paused for a moment. She had been out here for 3 days now, and hadnt yet broached the subject of showcasing Tinas work yet. All she knew was that Tina was a successful artist, who, suddenly 5 years ago fell off the face of the earth, with no reason that anyone could find. Now the question was how did she broach the subject without making Tina uncomfortable.
I saw your work once you know, Bette started.
Really? Tina asked. Bette noted how her face clouded over, and the tense demeanour of her body.
Yes, she continued. I was in London at the time, and you were exhibiting at the Tate Modern. I was completely blown away. They were so alive, so energetic. Your brush strokes were so powerful. I dont think I had ever seen paintings so vibrant before.
I dont paint anymore, Tina said slowly a look of complete desolation crossing her face.
Do you mind if I ask why? asked Bette, reaching out her hand to gently touch Tinas arm.
Tina looked ahead of her as she tried to control her emotions. She paused, deep in thought. Eventually with a quick shake of her head, as if she had just made an important decision she looked across at Bette.
Do you want to see my work? Asked Tina.
Two hours later they had arrived at their destination. Tina kept a studio within the Masai Mara wildlife reserve, south west of the village of Narok.
