Welcome to Rainbow Snippets!!
Hope your weekend is going well so far. 🙂
More from “The Hippie Whisperer” below. Carl takes a lunch break after his meeting and runs into…guess who! 🙂

Instead of going to the teacher’s lounge, I went off campus. The Reader’s Den was only a ten-minute walk away, and I admitted to being curious about Ben’s work. It was hot out, but I didn’t mind it, much. I wanted to talk to the one person in my life who I knew, even after so short an acquaintance, would always give me the unvarnished truth, no matter how painful.
Ben sat on an old wooden bench near the wall he was painting. He was halfway through a sandwich. The first thing I noticed, of course, was his hair, but he seemed almost…tame with his paint spattered T-shirt and frayed jeans. A knotted gray handkerchief graced his neck. It all suited him, somehow, the paint brushes, rollers, paint cans. He was in his element.

I like the description of Ben.
Well, it wouldn’t let me share via tweet, so I’ll just say that yep, this is an artist’s wardrobe and life.
Thanks, Jeanne. 🙂 Sorry it wouldn’t share – weird. As an artist myself, I can relate.
Appreciate it 🙂
Great description!
Thanks! 🙂
