Artist's Note:
I'm always intrigued with "people watching" walk. The matching gait by people walking together is the same gait, subliminal communication, with their steps matching, either both legs swinging in unison with the same left-right legs, or both legs swinging in the same unison but both outside/inside legs matching their gait, like this strolling pair I painted above, inside forward, outside lift, all in subliminal conversation, her cell phone tucked in her back pocket. -Bruce
