That's a good point.

A week ago I compared Mashiro (and her overall situation) to Michael Jordan.

Well, if Mashiro is Michael Jordan then Rita is Scottie Pippen. In other words, Rita is a successful professional painter and has a high level of talent herself (just not as high). Even if she will never be Mashiro's equal, she has a bright future ahead of her in the world of painting.
