4-29-11, Day 235

To Mandy:
Tin can sculpture made by "JJ" a homeless man who's been
in my neighborhood for the past month using a Swiss Army knife to puncture and shape.  His hands never stop moving, even when in conversation, mildly distracted.  He brings to mind women who weave rugs, embroider, knit.  When he runs out of tin cans, he uses cardboard.  We chat.  Last Sunday when I stopped to wish him a "Happy Easter."  He said, "Oh, I don't believe in Easter...just the eggs."
The artist.
From Mandy:


Before & Afters of our weed patio turned zen garden. We are growing tomatoes, strawberries, basil, cilantro & gnomes.
