Well Read

If you have ever visited a gallery on the Plaza in Santa Fe, they are usually very pristine and almost a little intimidating. My wife and I were walking around when we saw this man parked in a chair reading. He looked a little disheveled and sunburned. I assumed he was killing-time in front of a gallery. Turned-out it was his place and it was as disheveled as he was. You could barely walk through, but in the piles of “stuff” there were really nice pieces of original art. We would carry a piece outside and ask about it and he would glance-up and tell you the artist, the date it was painted, the price and then go back to reading. He was so interesting looking that I asked if I could take a photo of him to paint later and he agreed as he kept reading.
