Keith Painting

From the series, "Panhandlers of Harvard Square." Keith has a thing for the ladies. His taste was so impeccable that I soon found myself being distracted by a reliably shapely female form receding from view whenever I heard him say "Oh young lady, I like how you make that dress move!" He also freely dispensed advice to many of the street people. "I've been here six years," he told me. "I'm everybody's uncle." He advised a sad-eyed young black woman at length to head home to her parents. She spoke not a single word the whole time. Afterwards he winked at me and said "If she goes home I get her spot." At one point Keith showed me his baggie of prescription medicines. "Congestive heart failure" he told me, and laughed. More than any of the panhandlers I've met so far, he seemed to be having a wonderful time and did not regret his decision to live on the streets. NB: A few days later I was painting Sean and Keith stopped off, He was in a lot of pain and said there was no way he could get more pain medication anytime soon. Perhaps I was a premature in suggesting he did not regret his decision.
