Her career is enjoying something of a renaissance after she landed a role in Charlie Sheen sitcom Anger Management.
But that did not stop Selma Blair finding time in her busy schedule to enjoy a play date with son Arthur in Hollywood on Tuesday.
The pair looked like they were having a ball as they larked around on some green space at the trendy Grove shopping centre.

Selma had even coordinated colours with her 19-year-old dressing him in a white T-shirt and red trousers featuring black stripes.
The actress split from Arthur's father Jason Bleick last September and has adapted well to life as a single mother.
