Buried Treasures

Buried Treasures 2007 oil on canvas 30x30” Private Collection

This is a little head shop on Haviland Street between Berklee College of Music and the Boston Conservatory. It was usually closed when I walked past it, but I liked the alley and the golden building beyond. I eventually met and befriended the man who works behind the counter, and did a number of paintings of the place, eventually placing him in one of the paintings.
