The Street Artist

Definition: an artist working in a public area, as a park or sidewalk, with hopes of selling to passersby or tourists

A few days ago I saw this man in dirty, dingy, old clothing sitting on a cardboard box (flattened) on the cement. He looked like he hadn’t washed himself in a few weeks, and he may or may not have been homeless (sans-abri).


I definitely would not have suspected him capable of rendering something like this.

Wow! I bet he's worked hard to be able to produce artwork like that! I'm sure that, in part, he was born with it, but wow! Rather impressive!
