Sue - My sister devoeepld scoliosis when she was 17 years old.  They did surgery on her where they put two steel rods on either side of her spine, and fused in some bone fragments taken from her hip.  She had to wear a body cast for six months, and then a brace for a few more months.  This was done 40 years ago, and she has had a healthy, straight spine ever since. ( The steel rods were removed about 5 years after the operation ).  Did your doctor ever consider doing this for you?

I was deliberately tinyrg to hold that little sliver as the brightest spot in this sketch because that is what I observed when I drew the building. It is the only spot on the sketch left unpainted. Thanks so much for your comment on the colors. I have twelve half inch square pans in my Zig field box which I fill with tube colors. I use a limited palette that was suggested to me in a workhop by Ratindra Das who I call my watercolor guru. Opera rose, Quinacrindone Gold and Winsor Blue are the primaries and they are very intense colors. To those I add  nine  convenience  colors just so I can vary the tyrannical greens of the midwest, the blues of the sky pieces and tweak the reds/yellows when needed: olive or sap green, viridian, cobalt green, ultramarine, cadmium red, cadmium yellow, winsor orange, quinacrindone red, and burnt sienna. I don't adjust hue or saturation post-scan although I will dodge the shadows a bit along the unpainted edges of the page created by the watercolor buckle. I really appreciate your encouraging comments.

Industry in Springfield continued to be centered around the mills although small manufactories are listed in the business directories, including wagon maker, tannery, chair manufacturer and sash and door factory (Pacific Coast Business Directory 1871:338; Murphy 1873:254-255; gill 1881:651; McKenny 1883:1090-1091).
