Who can paint summer in fifty brushstrokes and three colors? Brushes
and palettes clattered throughout the warehouse, artists bent on a
challenge beyond mind-numbing portraits and caricatures. It didn’t pay
the rent, but it kept us sharp.

don’t know who.

Alone in a warehouse. Brush on paper – a broad, confident stroke. I
smiled.
