I love to watch waiters in action, but sometimes the moments in between can be quite intriguing. Here, our waiter is wondering if the guests at table 10 are going to be much longer and hoping the tip is generous.
Painted using a limited palette and it was done from life - in the studio. There was a time when I would actually go to restaurants and hire waiters and waitresses to pose. What was I thinking??? Needless to say it didn't go well, modeling is a job too, and we are not all cut out for it. After a few waitress problems I invested in a white apron. From then on, I costumed models to pose, and that was a lot more successful.
