A Family Stop at the Motel

A roadside motel in a warm desert style, shown as five rooms. Top left, a family room has a bed with a striped blanket, a tiny VW van hanging from the ceiling, an old television and a boy drawing on the floor while his parents read postcards. Next door two sisters sit on twin beds under a cactus-print wall, a suitcase on a rack between them. Below, the lobby has a checkerboard floor, a curved desk with a cash register and postcard stand, and a traveller pointing at a map of the United States. A vending machine corridor glows with a painted sunset, a mechanic in a cap and a child at the machine. At the right a laundry room has washers, a woman folding sheets, and a boy with a towel. Warm oranges and teals set each room apart.
