Ghost on the Bridge

I did this painting based on thoughts I wrote in my sketchbook a few years ago after seeing a young lady sitting cross-legged on the Madison Bridge. She was there every evening on my way to Union Station.

"She sits cross-legged, a book in her left hand.  She is a ghostly figure on  the Madison Bridge.  Commuters robotically walk passed her.  They do not notice that the page is never turned.  She sits motionless, a fixture in her surroundings.  A GHOST!"
