Photo Prompt 4 Art Painting 401 words The Missing Artist Olivia stared intently at her cousin’s painting hanging in the dining room of her palatial home. Her cousin James painted the gripping countenance of his great-grandparents’ hands. They are kin to his mother’s side of their family. Olivia understood why their index fingers were outstretched pointing toward each other. James, her cousin, took a great interest in family history. He painted numerous portraits, his specialty. She was not surprised when Prince Harry commissioned him to paint portraits of his children. Olivia received a puzzling text from James. It seems the Prince missed their appointment. While leaving the place alone, he was accosted by a gypsy name Sherry and taken to an unknown location. James’ text pleaded for her help. She was at a loss how to proceed. She had no information about where the meeting was to be held. How could she find him? Who could give her information? Aunt Annie would know. Her father long described his sister Annie as peculiar in a psychic kind of way. She could use her powers to locate James. She phoned only to find out her aunt was gone on holiday to the Gold Coast, Australia. Hoping she would return her call, Olivia moved on searching the internet. She scheduled an appointment with a psychic for later in the evening. Madame Victoria was feeling poorly. One more appointment and she would take to her bed for the night. Olivia arrived at the appointed hour. “Did you bring his handkerchief? “ “Yes, ma’am, here it is.” Olivia watched and waited. The psychic fingered the white cotton handkerchief, turned, and said, “Look behind the painting of the hands. You will find your answer there.” “Cut!!!!That’s a wrap, people. Nice work. Check your call sheets for tomorrow. Call times start at dawn.” |
