Artistic ‘Flower Man’ gets new house, paint job, too
By ANDREW GUY JR.
Copyright 2003 Houston Chronicle Paint cans sit on the ground, tops popped off, brushes dipping in and out. Sledge hammers lift and fall, crushing the dilapidated columns on the porch and the tile floors in the entrance. Workers scatter, lifting, squatting, brushing, sweeping.“Yeah!” the Flower Man answers.
The door is painted.
Bright yellow.
“This is the only yellow that will bring out the life of this dead house,” the Flower Man says. “And it brightens up this corner.”
