Darby Looking in Water with Little Person by Sabrina Cameron, 2012
A few weeks ago, my 5-year-old niece, Sabrina Cameron, came home from school with this drawing of Darby. She said she was inspired by a story she heard. My sister, Sheila, thinks it was Aesop’s fable about the dog and his reflection. I wonder if it was Narcissus. Either way, I wanted to share it today, on Darby’s birthday.
He would have been 18. I miss him every day. But it makes me smile (OK, and shed a few tears) that he continues to inspire great artists like Sabrina.
Happy Birthday, Darby.
